DESCRIPTION

Port

This field displays the port number. If you configure the * port,

 

the settings are applied to all of the ports.

 

 

Trusted State

Select whether this port is a trusted port (Trusted) or an

 

untrusted port (Untrusted).

 

The Switch does not discard ARP packets on trusted ports for any

 

reason.

 

The Switch discards ARP packets on untrusted ports in the

 

following situations:

 

• The sender’s information in the ARP packet does not match

 

any of the current bindings.

 

• The rate at which ARP packets arrive is too high. You can

 

specify the maximum rate at which ARP packets can arrive on

 

untrusted ports.

 

 

Limit

These settings have no effect on trusted ports.

 

 

Rate (pps)

Specify the maximum rate (1-2048 packets per second) at which

 

the Switch receives ARP packets from each port. The Switch

 

discards any additional ARP packets. Enter 0 to disable this limit.
