Description
Use the unicast-suppression command to set the size of unknown unicast traffic
allowed to be received on the current port.
Use the undo unicast-suppression command to restore the size of unknown unicast
traffic allowed to be received on the current port.
When incoming unknown unicast traffic on the port exceeds the threshold you set, the
system drops the packets exceeding the threshold to reduce the unknown unicast
traffic ratio to the reasonable range, so as to keep normal network service.
This function is disabled by default.
Caution:
Type-A LPUs (including 3C16860, 3C16861, 3C16858, and 3C16859) do not support
enabling unknown unicast suppression on a port.
Example
# Allow the incoming unknown unicast traffic on the Ethernet1/0/1 port to occupy at
most 20% of the bandwidth on the port.
