GMB operating notes

Impact of QoS queue configuration on GMB commands

Changing the number of queues causes the GMB commands (interface bandwidth-min and show
bandwidth output) to operate only on the number of queues currently configured. In addition, when the qos
queue-config command is executed, any previously configured bandwidth-min output settings are
removed from the startup configuration. For the default GMB percentage allocations per number of queues, see
Default GMB percentage allocations per QoS queue configuration.

Rate-limiting Unknown Unicast Traffic

Unknown unicast traffic consists of unicast packets with unknown destination MAC addresses. The switch floods
the unicast packets to all interfaces that are members of the VLAN. An attacker can bring down the network by
sending out packets to random destination MAC addresses and hence it is important to rate limit traffic with
unknown destination addresses.
You can rate limit the unknown unicast traffic per port level in either percent or kbps mode.
