Usage Guidelines

When a large number of multicast packets are transmitted on a network, a lot of network resources are occupied, and services on the network are affected. You can run the multicast-suppression command to enable multicast traffic suppression in a BD and configure the maximum number of multicast packets that can pass through a BD. When the multicast traffic volume exceeds the specified threshold, the system discards excess multicast packets.

Example

# Set the CIR value for multicast traffic in BD 10 to 100 kbit/s.
