Answer
- Aged out session end reason occurs when a session closes due to aging out.
- For UDP Traffic like Dns traffic is normal to seeing the aged out and it is a normal way for UDP session to end.
- For the TCP sessions Age out occurs when a session ages out due to timeout.
- For example if user tries to connect to a server and user is waiting for a response / ack / syn-ack. If the tcp handshake is not established, it times out or firewall did not receive enough packets to recognize the application and it gets timed out.
