Chapter 18: Denial of Service (DoS) Commands

246

Caution

This defense is extremely CPU intensive and should be used with
caution. Unrestricted use can cause a switch to halt operations
should the CPU become overwhelmed with IP traffic. To prevent
this, Allied Telesyn recommends activating this defense on only the
uplink port and one other switch port at a time.

Examples

The following command activates the defense on port 22:

set dos teardrop port=22 state=enable
