Skyline Collector overwhelming firewall

Hi,

We have a single skyline collector pointed at two vcenters, two vrOps, two NSX managers, and a single Log Insight and vRA instance.

Basically it has been causing stability and latency issues on our network by triggering the DoS/Flooding/Packet Buffer Protection on our Palo Alto firewall from creating too many sessions to the 208.91.0.89 IP address when periodically uploading to the cloud.

Not sure if this is a known issue and what we can do from the application/Skyline side to help mitigate this.

We have had tickets open with the firewall vendor for some time but no other application we have is causing this behaviour.

Thanks
