Hello,

I'm using the following version of vmware products :

- vCloud Director 5.1.1.868405

- vCloudApi SDK PHP 5.1.0-819742

We are working on the benchmarks/performances of the vmware vcloud director edgeGateway. We have tested different network flow on the edge network. In a first test part we tested that without Firewall rules and 8 or 9 NAT rules. We've got interresting values. and now we want to test it with different amount of firewall rules. So to do that I created a php script to generate randomly a lot of firewall rules. So my first attempt was to generate 1000 fw rules. and I've got the following message :

after some tests. I saw that the maximum of firewal rules that we can set with the API is 200. each rules need 10 xml element to describe it.

Is there a way to change that limit for the API or to add new rules without delete the former created ? It seems that the way the API works you have to get all former rules, add to the xml the new rules and re-send the former and the new rules to update the firewall rules configuration.

Any ideas ?

regards,
