Important Points to Remember

Link dampening is disabled when the interface is configured for port monitoring.
You can apply link dampening to Layer 2 and Layer 3 interfaces.
You can configure link dampening on individual interfaces in a LAG.
Configuration Example of Link Dampening
The figure shows a how link dampening works in a sample scenario when an interface is configured with dampening. The following figure
shows the interface state change, accumulation and decay of penalty, and the interface advertised state based on the set dampening
parameters. The dampening parameters are set as follows:
half-life— 10 seconds
reuse-threshold—300
suppress-threshold—2400
max-suppress-time—60 seconds
