xStack DES-6500 Modular Layer 3 Chassis Ethernet Switch CLI Manual

config safeguard_engine

Purpose

Used to configure the Safeguard Engine settings for the Switch.

Syntax

config safeguard_engine {state [enable disable] utilization

 

{rising <value 20-100> falling <value 20-100> trap_log

 

[enable disable} mode [strict fuzzy]}

Description

This command is used to configure the settings for the Safeguard

 

Engine function of this Switch, based on CPU utilization.

Parameters

state [enable disable] – Select the running state of the

 

Safeguard Engine function as enable or disable.

 

utilization – Select this option to trigger the Safeguard Engine

 

function to enable based on the following determinates:

 

rising <value 20-100>- The user can set a percentage

 

value of the rising CPU utilization which will trigger the

 

Safeguard Engine function. Once the CPU utilization rises

 

to this percentage, the Safeguard Engine mechanism will

 

initiate.

 

falling <value 20-100>- The user can set a percentage

 

value of the falling CPU utilization which will trigger the

 

Safeguard Engine function to cease. Once the CPU

 

utilization falls to this percentage, the Safeguard Engine

 

mechanism will shut down.

 

trap_log [enable disable] – Choose whether to enable or disable

 

the sending of messages to the device’s SNMP agent and switch

 

log once the Safeguard Engine has been activated by a high

 

CPU utilization rate.

 

mode - Used to select the type of Safeguard Engine to be

 

activated by the Switch when the CPU utilization reaches a high

 

rate. The user may select:

 

strict – If selected, this function will instruct the Switch to

 

minimize the IP and ARP traffic flow to the CPU by

 

dynamically allotting an even bandwidth to all traffic flows.

 

fuzzy - If selected, this function will stop accepting all ARP

 

packets not intended for the Switch, and will stop receiving

 

all unnecessary broadcast IP packets, until the storm has

 

subsided.

Restrictions

Only administrator-level users can issue this command.

 

 

Example usage:

To configure the Switch for the Safeguard Engine.
