(Optional) Configuring Traffic Suppression of MAC Flapping-based Loop Detection

If a loop occurs on a network, the broadcast domain encounters broadcast storms. To prevent other broadcast domains from being affected, traffic suppression of MAC flapping-based loop detection must be enabled.

Context

Traffic suppression of MAC flapping-based loop detection is enabled by default. You can set a threshold for this function to allow the system to implement traffic suppression based on the threshold.

When the network topology becomes stable and no loops occur, disable this function.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run loop-detect traffic-suppression threshold suppression-threshold

    A threshold is set for traffic suppression of MAC flapping-based loop detection.

    When the network topology becomes stable and no loops occur, run the loop-detect traffic-suppression disable command to disable this function.

  3. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
