Example
This example shows how to set flow limiting
action 1 to discard all flows exceeding 12 on ports
classified as user ports:
discard | drop |
trap | disable
Specifies the action to be taken if flow limit is reached as:
• Discarding excess flows. This causes a “discard flow” to
be created. Packets are accepted to this flow but are
discarded (not forwarded anywhere). This allows the
flow counters to be updated (and possibly reach a second
higher threshold action (for example: trap or disable, as
described below).
• Dropping excess flows. This causes the flow request to
be denied without creating a new flow, and the packet is
not forwarded (flow counters are not altered).
• Generating an SNMP trap notification (if the set
flowlimit notification function is enabled as described
in Section 14.3.9.7).
• Disabling the interface (if the set flowlimit shutdown
function is enabled as described in Section 14.3.9.6).
This will clear all FST settings on the port.
