LABEL DESCRIPTION
Cause This field displays the types of control packet that may cause CPU

* Use this row to make the setting the same for all entries. Use this row
first and then make adjustments to each entry if necessary.
Note: Changes in this row are copied to all the entries as soon as you
make them.
Active Select this option to have the Switch detect if the configured rate limit for
specific control packets is exceeded and take the action selected below.
Mode Select the action that the Switch takes when the number of control
packets exceed the rate limit on a port, set in the Advanced Application
> Errdisable > CPU protection screen.
inactive-port - The Switch shuts down the port.
inactive-reason - The Switch bypasses the processing of the
specified control packets (such as ARP or IGMP packets), or drops all
the specified control packets (such as BPDU) on the port.
rate-limitation - The Switch drops the additional control packets the
port has to handle in every one second.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The
Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the
Save link on the top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-
volatile memory when you are done configuring.
