Configuring Rate Limit for AP Traffic

Context

When there are a large number of broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast packets, the CPU becomes busy processing these packets. When the traffic rate reaches the rate limit for intelligent traffic control, the device limits the rates of broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast packets. You can run this command to specify a rate limit as required.

Procedure

Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
Run wlan
The WLAN view is displayed.
Run ap-system-profile name profile-name
An AP system profile is created, and the AP system profile view is displayed.

By default, the system provides the AP system profile default.
Run broadcast-suppression auto-detect packets packets
The rate limit is specified for broadcast packets.

By default, the rate limit for broadcast packets is 256 pps.
Run multicast-suppression auto-detect packets packets
The rate limit is specified for multicast packets.

By default, the rate limit for multicast packets is 256 pps.
Run undo unicast-suppression auto-detect disable
Intelligent flow control is enabled for unknown unicast packets.

By default, intelligent flow control is enabled for unknown unicast packets.
Run unicast-suppression auto-detect packets packets
The rate limit is specified for unknown unicast packets.

By default, the rate limit for unknown unicast packets is 128 pps.
Run quit
Return to the WLAN view.
Bind an AP system profile to an AP group or AP.
- Binding an AP system profile to an AP group.
  1. Run the ap-group name group-name command to enter the AP group view.
  2. Run the ap-system-profile profile-name command to bind the AP system profile to the AP group.
    
    By default, the AP system profile default is bound to an AP group.
- Binding an AP system profile to an AP.
  1. Run the ap-id ap-id, ap-mac ap-mac, or ap-name ap-name command to enter the AP view.
  2. Run the ap-system-profile profile-name command to bind the AP system profile to the AP.
    
    By default, no AP system profile is bound to an AP.
