Headroom buffers are used to store packets when ingress admission control checks fail to store them in both the

DHCP relay agent uses one of the addresses configured on the interface as the source IP when relaying messages to the

DHCPv6 relay supports Remote ID option (37) insertion in relay messages providing the Layer 3 interface name on which

The feature allows to create a named TC to DSCP mapping that can be applied on an interface.DSCP of routed packets egressing out of the interface will be rewritten according to the map.

EVPN route advertisements carry RD and RT. RD (Route Distinguisher) : prepend to the tenant’s IP Prefix or MAC address to make it globally unique. RT (Route Target) : a BGP extended community used to tag the EVPN route.  The EVPN import policy is chosen to select what is the target tenant VRF is imported from the global EVPN table.

Network operators have to monitor all kinds of information on the health of their networking equipment like

Hierarchical Forwarding Equivalence Class (HFEC) changes a FEC from a single flat level to a multi level FEC

IPv6 multicast routing protocols are used to distribute IPv6 datagrams to one or more recipients. IPv6 PIM builds and maintains multicast routing using reverse path forwarding (RPF) based on the unicast routing table. IPv6 PIM is protocol-independent and can use routing tables consisting of OSPFv3, IPv6 BGP or static routes, for RPF lookup. MLD is used to discover multicast hosts and maintain group membership on a directly attached link.

This feature adds support for PIM SSM (Source Specific Multicast) for IPv6 Multicast Routing on platforms listed

The 'clear isis neighbor' command can be used to delete and possibly re establish IS IS adjacencies on a box. Issuing

This feature allows user to configure adjacency SID of global scope for IS IS adjacencies. It is an extension to IS IS

Normally, a switch traps L2 protocol frames to the CPU. However, certain use-cases may require these frames to be forwarded or dropped. In cases where the L2 protocol frames are forwarded (eg: Pseudowire), we may require the frames to be trapped to the CPU or dropped. The L2 Protocol Forwarding feature provides a mechanism to control the behavior of L2 protocol frames received on a port or subinterface.

Lanz Mirroring feature allows users to automatically mirror traffic queued as a result of congestion to either CPU or a different interface.

This document describes the latest status of LANZ on DCS 7500R, DCS 7280R and DCS 7020R, for both polling and notifying

A MACsec port with this feature enabled transmits LLDP frames without MACSec encryption and receives LLDP frames

IP traceroute and path MTU (PMTU) discovery both require that routers send ICMP reply messages to the host that invokes each network function. When the route to the destination host traverses an MPLS label-switched path (LSP), the label switching routers (LSRs) will also need to send ICMP reply messages to the originating host.

The MLD protocol is the IPv6 equivalent of IGMP for IPv4. Multicast routers use MLD to find out about multicast

This feature provides per multicast route ingress packet and byte counters for multicast routed packets.

The PHY test pattern CLI can be used to check the quality of the physical layer for an Ethernet interface. This is done by

Priority Flow Control is a link-layer flow control mechanism which may be used by an overwhelmed network node to ask its transmitters to stop transmission for a specified period of time. It does so by using special frames known as PFC frames, thus, relieving congestion at the receiver node. With respect to this behavior, PFC is very similar to Link Layer Flow Control ( LLFC ), however, unlike LLFC, PFC allows the overwhelmed node to specify which 802.1Q Class of Service ( CoS ) it wants to stop receiving traffic for. Thus, allowing differentiated treatment of traffic based on CoS.

This feature allows users to view most recent history of offset from master, mean path delay and skew values via CLI

Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (uRPF) can help limit malicious traffic on a network. uRPF works by enabling the

This feature is available in the VLAN configuration mode. When a switch receives a packet with unknown destination MAC address on a VLAN, L2 miss happens. The current behavior for L2 miss packets is to flood the packet on all ports of the VLAN. In certain cases, there may be a preference to drop or log L2 miss packets instead of flooding them across the VLAN.
