arp-miss anti-attack rate-limit

Function

The arp-miss anti-attack rate-limit command sets the maximum rate and rate limiting duration of ARP Miss messages globally, in a VLAN, or on an interface.

The undo arp-miss anti-attack rate-limit command restores the default maximum rate and rate limiting duration of ARP Miss messages globally, in a VLAN, or on an interface.

By default, the device can process a maximum of 100 ARP Miss messages per second.

Parameters

Parameter

Description

Value

packet packet-number

Specifies the maximum rate of ARP Miss messages, that is, the number of ARP Miss messages the device processes in the rate limiting duration.

The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 16384. The default value is 100.

interval interval-value

Specifies the rate limiting duration of ARP Miss messages.

The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 86400, in seconds. The default value is 1 second.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

After rate limit on ARP Miss messages is enabled, you can set maximum rate and rate limiting duration of ARP Miss messages globally, in a VLAN, or on an interface. If the number of ARP Miss messages triggered by IP packets in the rate limiting duration exceeds the limit, the device does not process the excess ARP Miss packets and discards the IP packets triggering the excess ARP Miss messages.

Prerequisites

Rate limit on ARP Miss messages has been enabled globally, in a VLAN, or on an interface using the arp-miss anti-attack rate-limit enable command.

Precautions

If rate limit on ARP Miss messages is configured in the system view, VLAN view, and interface view, the device uses the configurations in the interface view, VLAN view, and system view in order.
