When Insufficient Resources Are Available

When Insufficient Resources Are Available

The switch has ample resources for configuring features and supporting:

■RADIUS-authenticated clients (with or without the optional IDM applica- tion)

■Virus throttling and blocking on individual clients.

Virus throttling does not operate on IPv6 traffic.

If the resources supporting these features become fully subscribed:

■The current feature configuration, RADIUS-authenticated client sessions, and virus throttling instances continue to operate normally.

■The switch generates an event log notice to say that current resources are fully subscribed.

■Currently engaged resources must be released before any of the following actions are supported:

•Configuration of new entries for QoS, IDM, virus throttling, and other features (Management VLAN, DHCP snooping, dynamic ARP protection).

•Acceptance of new RADIUS-based client authentication requests (displayed as a new resource entry for IDM).

Failure to authenticate a client that presents valid credentials may indicate that insufficient resources are available for the features configured for the client in the RADIUS server. To troubleshoot, check the event log.

•Throttling or blocking of newly detected clients with a high rate of connection requests (as defined by the current virus-throttling configuration).

The switch continues to generate event log notifications (and SNMP trap notification, if configured) for new instances of high connection- rate behavior detected by the virus-throttling feature.
