xStack® DGS-3200 Series Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Managed Switch Figure 5 - 1. Safeguard Engine example For every consecutive checking interval that reveals a packet flooding issue, the Switch will double the time it will discard ingress ARP and IP broadcast packets and packets from untrusted IP a ddresses. In the example above, the Switch doubled the time for dropping A RP and IP broadcast p ackets when con secutive f looding issues w ere detected at 5-second in tervals. (First sto p = 5 seconds, second stop = 10 seconds, third stop = 20 seconds) Once the flooding is no longer detected, the wait period for dropping ARP and IP broadcast packets will return to 5 seconds and the process will resume. In Fuzzy mode, once the Safeguard Engine has entered the Exhausted mode, the Safeguard Engine will decrease the packet flow by h alf. After retu rning to Normal mode, the p acket flow will b e i ncreased b y 25 %. Th e switch will th en return t o its in terval checking and dynamically adjust the packet flow to avoid overload of the Switch. NOTICE: When Safeguard Engine is enabled, the Switch will allot bandwidth to various traffic flows (ARP, IP) using the FFP (Fast Filter Processor) metering table to control the CPU utilization and limit traffic. This may limit the speed of routing traffic over the network. Users can enable the Safeguard Engine or configure advanced Safeguard Engine settings for the Switch.
