When the upper threshold is exceeded and the apply timer expires, a
◆
control response will be triggered based on this command.
When the control response is set to rate limiting by this command, the
◆
rate limits are determined by the
threshold
command.
If the control response is to limit the rate of ingress traffic, it can be
◆
automatically terminated once the traffic rate has fallen beneath the
lower threshold and the release timer has expired.
If a port has been shut down by a control response, it will not be re-
◆
enabled by automatic traffic control. It can only be manually re-enabled
using the
auto-traffic-control control-release
