Description | In certain scenarios, when an interface in a system
transitions to a down state due to a particular reason, it is
likely for the interface to keep flapping between up and down
states continuously. The objects in each entry of this table
help in controlling such behaviour on an interface by stopping
such frequent transitions and holding the interface in down
state, if a stipulated number of such toggles happen in a given
duration, as described in the objects.
Per each reason for which the interface flaps, an entry in this
table can be used to configure the following: whether or not
the flapping should be controlled on the interface, the allowed
number of flaps and the allowed duration before the interface
is held in down state. |
