Usage Guidelines

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

Example

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