Using Safeguard Check
Malicious hosts on the network could attack the Switch through various
methods (for example, packet flooding). To overcome this situation, D-View
uses Safeguard Engine to protect switches from malicious traffic flood. This
minimizes the workload of the switch during the attack. The Switch, therefore,
is capable of forwarding essential packets even during limited bandwidths.
By default, the safeguard status of all devices is disabled.
To configure the safeguard status:
1. Go to Application > Batch Config > Run Batch
Or
In the opened topology select the device and right-click and select Run
Batch.
The Run Batch screen displays. You can now enable or disable the devices'
Safeguard Engine.
2. Check the devices and then select ENABLE from the Option drop-down
list.
3. Click Apply to enable the Safeguard Engine status of the selected
devices.
4. Go to Advanced > Safeguard Check for the updated enable status of the
selected devices. The Safeguard Check screen displays.
