[j-nsp] M120 : Arp broadcast messages causes irradic behaviour

[Sunil Mayenkar]

Hello Gentlemen,

Problem faced: When a large broadcast generated by the downstream network(1,00,000Pkts per sec) hits the Juniper gigE interface it causes the node to behave erratically, not allowing remote login, LSPs flap, until the port is shut down.

I understand that a default arp policer is applied on the interface. What is the value of this policer? And whether its a good idea to modify this policer?

Thanks in advance.
