Limit size of scan payloads to prevent memory overloading

Reported by Paul Jones | 2011-07-21 15:53:04 UTC

In order to prevent a scan payload overloading the memory of the agent, it should be possible to configure a limit on the size of a scan payload that will be accepted.

If the payload is rejected, then an error message should be logged indicating that it was rejected due to size. The error should also point to documentation (perhaps via a URL in the error message) suggesting that an aggregation factor and constraint setup should be applied to reduce payload sizes. At the very least, all systems should be capable of implementing a string prefix constraint/aggregation based on their ID.
