Configure Dos-Protect Trusted Ports - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare XOS Command Reference Manual

configure dos-protect trusted ports

configure dos-protect trusted-ports
[ports [<ports> | all]
| add-ports [<ports-to-add> | all]
| delete-ports [<ports-to-delete> | all]
]
Description
Configures the list of trusted ports.
Syntax Description
ports
ports-to-add
all
ports-to-delete
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
Traffic from trusted ports will be ignored when DoS protect counts the packets to the CPU. If we know
that a machine connected to a certain port on the switch is a safe "trusted" machine, and we know that
we will not get a DoS attack from that machine, the port where this machine is connected to can be
configured as a trusted port, even though a large amount of traffic is going through this port.
Example
This example sets the trusted port list to 3:1-3:7:
configure dos-protect trusted-ports ports 3:1-3:7
This example adds the trusted port 3:8 to the current list (use this command with a network
administrator machine not connected to the internet that is attached to port 3:8):
configure dos-protect trusted-ports add-ports 3:8
