Default Re: Connections tables reaching limits and connections are being dropped?

Another important question that it would be useful to get an answer for on this subject is does it clear the existing table when it increases.

Background:-
If you increase the connection limits in the Gui under the Firewall Node/ capacity optimization/connections table size from 25,000 to 50,000 the effect does not take place until you push the policy. So the question is, when you push the policy and implement the table size increase, does it drop packets going through the firewall module or does it remember them all and is a seamless process. I have done this on other firewalls, but can't quite remember if it was seamless!!! Obviously you wouldn't want to do it in the middle of the day if it drops all existing connections! Help!!

Many thanks in advance
