## Symptoms

- * UDP traffic is dropped on clean up rule instead of matching dedicated template.
* Drop templates are not generated.
* High CPU usage observed in the FWK process on the Security Gateway.

## Cause

The Security Gateway processes dropped packet individually due to a failure in the drop template mechanism. Drop templates are SecureXL optimizations that reduce CPU load by handling known traffic patterns. When templates are not generated, the firewall instances are overwhelmed, triggering the priority queue.
