H Commands
This chapter describes the Cisco NX-OS Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) commands that begin with H.
hardware ip glean throttle
To enable Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) throttling, use the hardware ip glean throttle command. To return to the default setting, use the no form of this command.
Command Modes
Usage Guidelines![]()
Note We recommend that you configure the IP glean throttle feature by using the hardware ip glean throttle command to filter the unnecessary glean packets that are sent to the supervisor for ARP resolution for the next hops that are not reachable or do not exist. IP glean throttling boosts software performance and helps to manage traffic more efficiently.
hardware ip glean throttle maximum
To limit the maximum number of drop adjacencies that will be installed in the Forwarding Information Base (FIB), use the hardware ip glean throttle maximum command. If no form is used, default limits will be applied.
Command Modes
Usage GuidelinesIf the maximum number of entries are exceeded, the packets for which ARP is not resolved continue to be processed in the software instead of getting dropped in the hardware.
