Flow Setup Throttling Configuration Example

The FST configuration example presented here will provide a single port setup example for each port classification type. The baseline has been determined for each port as described in section Determining a Port Classification Flow Baseline. To determine the low-limit, the baseline is increased by 15%. To determine the high-limit, the baseline is increased by 60%.

All limit1 actions will be configured for notification only. Limit2 actions are:

• The PC user: disable the port and send notification
• The wireless access point: drop excess packets associated with flows above the limit and send notification
• The unspecified port connection: disable interface and send notification
• The server port, ISL, and unspecified port connections: send notification only

The configuration components used in this example are two S- or K-Series chassis, a PC, a wireless access point, and a server.
