Usage Information Source suppression prevents received packets from being transmitted from the ingress port. Source suppression
is enabled by default and is applied to all instances on the switch. If you disable source suppression, received
packets can be transmitted from the ingress port.
NOTE: If you disable source suppression, the following conditions apply:
• Dell Networking does not recommend enabling legacy features.
• You cannot enable Hybrid mode.
• If you install flows using OFPP_FLOOD or OFPP_ALL, traffic loops may occur. If you disable source
suppression, Dell Networking recommends that you do not install flows using these parameters.
