ipv6 nd miss anti-attack rate-limit (interface view)

Function

The ipv6 nd miss anti-attack rate-limit command sets the rate limit value for ND Miss messages.

The undo ipv6 nd miss anti-attack rate-limit command deletes the rate limit value for ND Miss messages.

By default, the rate limit for ND Miss messages anti-attack function is disabled.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

When a device sends an IPv6 packet, if the MAC address corresponding to the destination IPv6 address of the IPv6 packet does not exist, an ND Miss message is generated. This consumes device resources and affects the processing of other services. To resolve this problem, run the ipv6 nd miss anti-attack rate-limit command to configure the rate at which ND Miss messages are sent. With this configuration, the device processes only the allowed number of ND Miss messages within a specified period to ensure normal service running.

Configuration Impact

After the rate at which ND Miss messages are sent is limited, a device collects statistics about the number of received ND Miss messages. If the number of ND Miss messages received within a specified period exceeds the upper limit, the device discards the excess ND Miss messages.

Precautions

If the rate limit is too low and the login through Telnet fails because the device receives a large number of attack packets, you can log in to the device through the Console port to increase the rate limit.

Example

# Set the value of NDMISS packet rate limit based on suppression type to 550 pps on GE 0/1/0.
