Issue/Introduction
The recommendation for CacheFlow deployments is to enable dynamic bypass. The following is the default dynamic bypass setting; each parameter is configurable.
These value works well in most scenarios and deployments but can be tweaked to suit your needs
Resolution
When the dynamic bypass entries reaches the configured 'Max Entries', subsequent new entries will be added to the dynamic bypass list and the 'oldest entries' will be omitted. 'Oldest Entries' would be the one with the smallest Timeout value
In the example below, assuming the 'Max Entries' is 5, and a new entry is to be added, the entry for Client IP 192.168.1.8 will be omitted because it is the oldest entry in the list (23 min timeout)
