The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

This chapter describes the Cisco NX-OS Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) commands that begin with H.
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.

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.
This example shows how to enable ARP throttling:
switch(config)# hardware ip glean throttle
switch(config)#

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.
hardware ip glean throttle maximum count
no hardware ip glean throttle maximum count
The default value for count is 1000. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 32767 entries

---|---|
If 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.
This example shows how to limit the maximum number of drop adjacencies that are installed in the FIB:
switch(config)# hardware ip glean throttle maximum 2134
switch(config)#
