Parameter
Choose the CoS value for encapsulated packets.
Specify the value within the range from 0 to 7.
When you choose Default, use the default value.
Enter the drop threshold. The range is from 100 to
20,000. By default, the value is set to 0. The tunneling
of the layer 2 protocol packets consumes the
throughput (capacity) for encrypting, decoding and
transferring packets. Use this option to limit the
consumption of CPU processing bandwidth. Specify the
threshold for the number of all the layer 2 protocol
packets, which can be processed through the system.
The protocol packets, which exceed the maximum
number of packets, will be removed. When you choose
Default, use the default value.
Choose the action you perform. The options available
are Add or Delete. This option allows you to add the
address of a Layer 2 Protocol Tunneling (L2PT) Multicast
on the protocol specified. Or, the option allows you to
delete the address above from the protocol specified.
