The source-bridgeexplorer-dup-ARE-filtercommand can be used to reduce explorer traffic by filtering explorer frames.

To optimize explorer processing, use one or more of the following commands in global configuration mode:

Command	Purpose
source-bridge explorerq-depth depth	Set the maximum explorer queue
	depth.

source-bridge explorer-dup-ARE-filter	Prevent explorer storms in redundant
	network topologies by filtering
	explorers that have already been
	forwarded once.

source-bridge explorer-maxrate maxrate	Set the maximum byte rate of
	explorers per ring.

You must also disable explorer fast-switching which is, by default, enabled. To disable explorer fast-switching, use the following command in global configuration mode:

Command	Purpose
no source-bridge explorer-fastswitch	Disable explorer fast switching.

To enable explorer fast-switching after it has been disabled, use the following command in global configuration mode:

Command	Purpose
source-bridge explorer-fastswitch	Enable explorer fast switching.
