Usage Information With each ap, Dell Networking OS penalizes the interface by assigning a penalty (1024) that decays exponentially
depending on the congured half-life. After the accumulated penalty exceeds the suppress threshold value, the
interface moves to the Error-Disabled state. This interface state is deemed as “down” by all static/dynamic Layer 2
and Layer 3 protocols. The penalty is exponentially decayed based on the half-life timer. After the penalty decays
below the reuse threshold, the interface enables. The congured parameters are as follows:
• suppress-threshold should be greater than reuse-threshold
• max-suppress-time should be at least 4 times half-life
NOTE: You cannot apply dampening on an interface that is monitoring trac for other interfaces.
Example
Dell(conf-if-te-1/10)# dampening 20 800 4500 120
Dell(conf-if-te-1/10)#
Related Commands
• clear dampening — clear the dampening counters on all the interfaces or just the specied interface.
• show interfaces dampening — display interface dampening information.
default interface
Reset a physical interface to its factory default settings.
Syntax
default interface interface-type slot/port[/subport] - range
Parameters
interface-type slot/
port[/subport]
Enter the interface type and slot/port [/subport] information:
• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then
the slot/port[/subport] information.
• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/
port information.
range
• For non-ON platforms, you can specify multiple ports as slot/port-range. For
example, if you want to display information corresponding to all ports between 1 and 4,
specify the port range as show interfaces interface-type 1/1 - 4.
• For ON platforms, you can specify multiple ports as slot/port/[subport] -
slot/port/[subport]. For example, if you want to display information
corresponding to all ports between 1 and 4, specify the port range as show
interfaces interface-type 1/1/1 - 1/1/4.
