Justin,

I'm sure I could play around with those parameters a bit but don't want to
open us up to any sort of actual DOS attack.

I sent it over to [email protected] which is handling support during the
feature preview until TAC takes over.  They said that it's an issue with
the 8800 series firmware where the endpoint gets stuck in a loop sending
repeated authentication attempts.

I was able to view these requests at
https://<expressway-c>/edgestatushttpproxyrequests
and confirmed we're getting a few per second per endpoint.

They're currently working on an ES for the 8800 series to resolve this
issue.  I'll test it once I get my hands on it and report back.

Thanks,
Brian
