| Mar 16, 2022 at 14:16 | comment | added | Ged | @JesseP. Do you think these rate-limits are the only form of protection against this kind of flood? | |

| Mar 16, 2022 at 14:15 | comment | added | Ged | @JesseP. I would upvote your answer if I could! You mentioned rate-limits can be turned off or at least made negligible. Can this be done to a single device to generate that effect on all neighbors, or would it need to be done to all participants? | |

| Mar 16, 2022 at 13:52 | comment | added | Ged | @JesseP. That is what I was asking. Have you ever seen it done before? Or is there a limit to how many LSUs a router can send per unit of time? | |
| Mar 16, 2022 at 13:49 | comment | added | Jesse P. | @Zac67 I don’t think that’s what they were asking. I think they were just asking if there was a way to do it in general, like using TCL scripting on a Cisco router to mess with interfaces. | |
