Configuring the Rate Limit of Identity Packets for 802.1X Authentication to Be Sent to the CPU

Context

If a large number of Identity packets for 802.1X authentication are sent to the CPU of a switch, the CPU usage is high and other services are affected. To prevent this problem, run the access-user dot1x-identity speed-limit command to configure the rate limit of Identity packets for 802.1X authentication to be sent to the CPU, so that the switch discards excess Identity packets.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run access-user dot1x-identity speed-limit value

    The rate limit of Identity packets for 802.1X authentication to be sent to the CPU is configured.

    By default, the maximum of Identity packets for 802.1X authentication can be sent to the CPU every second depends on the device.
