Chapter29 Configuring Control-Plane Securi ty Monitoring Control-Plane Security
This example shows how to set the CPU protection threshold to 10000 bps an d to verify the
configuration.
Switch# config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# policer cpu uni 10000
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show policer cpu uni rate
CPU UNI port police rate = 10000 bps
Monitoring Control-Plane Security
You can monitor control-plane security settings and statistics on the switch or on an interface, and you
can clear these statistics at any time. Use the privileged EXEC commands in Table29-2 to display or
clear this information. For more information about the commands, see the command reference for this
release.
Table29-2 Commands for Monitoring Control-Plane Security
Command Purpose
clear policer cpu uni counters {classification |
drop}Clears all control-plane statistics per feature (classification) or all
statistics maintained by the control-plane policer (drop).
debug platform policer cpu uni Enables debugging of the control-plane policer. This command displays
information messages when any changes are made to CPU protection.
show platform policer cpu {classification |
interface interface-id} Displays control-plane policer information.
•classification—show classification statistics.
•interface interface-id—show policer indexes for the specified
interface.
show policer cpu uni {drop [policer-number] |
rate}Displays CPU policer information for the switch.
•drop [policer-number]—show the number of dropped frames for al l
policer numbers or the specified policer number.
•rate—show the configured threshold rate for CPU policers.
