Usage Scenario

Usage Scenario

If an attacker keeps sending SEND messages to a device, the device will be busy verifying the RSA signature. To limit the rate at which the interface verifies the RSA signature of the SEND messages, you can run the ipv6 nd security rate-limit command.

Configuration Impact

If the rate at which the interface verifies the RSA signature of the SEND messages is out of the allowed range, the device will regard these messages insecure and discard them.

Example

# Configure the system to process a maximum of 10 received ND messages per second.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] ipv6 nd security rate-limit 10
