Frequently asked questions

Can I upgrade from Community to Pro mid-cycle? Yes. FluxGate handles license rotation seamlessly. Your existing configuration and traffic rules persist without downtime. Billing prorates automatically.

What happens if I exceed the Pro rate limit? Traffic gracefully queues for 2 seconds, then returns HTTP 429 with retry-after headers. You can attach a Slack/PagerDuty webhook to alert your on-call engineer before throttling occurs.

Do Enterprise contracts require annual commitment? Flexible terms available. Most teams choose annual billing for a 20% discount, but quarterly or monthly options exist for pilot deployments. All Enterprise plans include a 14-day hardware-backed evaluation.
