max-suppress-
time
Enter the maximum number for which a route can be
suppressed. The default is four times the half-life value. The
range is from 1 to 86400. The default is 20 seconds.
Defaults Disabled.

Command
History
Version 9.2(0.0) Introduced on the M I/O Aggregator. This command is
supported in Programmable-Mux (PMUX) mode only.
Version 8.3.16.1 Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
With each flap, The Dell Networking OS penalizes the interface by assigning a
penalty (1024) that decays exponentially depending on the configured half-life.
After the accumulated penalty exceeds the suppress threshold value, the interface
moves to the Error-Disabled state. This interface state is deemed as “down” by all
static/dynamic Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocols. The penalty is exponentially decayed
based on the half-life timer. After the penalty decays below the reuse threshold,
the interface enables. The configured parameters are as follows:
• suppress-threshold should be greater than reuse-threshold
• max-suppress-time should be at least 4 times half-life
NOTE: You cannot apply dampening on an interface that is monitoring traffic
for other interfaces.
Example
Dell(conf-if-gi-3/2)#dampening 20 800 4500 120

Commands
clear dampening — clears the dampening counters on all the interfaces or just the
specified interface.
show interfaces dampening — displays interface dampening information.
description
Assign a descriptive text string to the interface.
Syntax
description desc_text
To delete a description, use the no description command.
Parameters
desc_text Enter a text string up to 240 characters long. To use special
characters as a part of the description string, you must
enclose the whole string in double quotes.
