Description: This attribute counts the total number of times a NetSentry filter was executed which referenced too many layers of indirect filters. If this count is non-zero, the filter definitions the unit is using are incorrect, and some operator action to track down the erroneous filter definitions is advised. Filters will not be behaving correctly if this counter is increasing, and security could be compromised. This count should always be zero, and it will wrap around to zero should it ever exceed its maximum value of 4294967295.

What is vrNsDepthExceeded?

Counts times a NetSentry filter referenced too many layers of indirect filters during execution. This should always read zero; any nonzero value means the filter definitions are broken and could be silently letting traffic through incorrectly, so it needs investigation.
