discard-unknown-source
Syntax [no] discard-unknown-source
Context config>card>mda>ring
Description This command specifies that packets with an unknown source MAC address received on a
ring port will be dropped if the source MAC is not already in the FDB (that is, the source MAC
was not learned before the discard-unknown-source command was enabled or is not a
static entry already created for the packet MAC).
When disabled, the packets are flooded to the other ring port or forwarded to the v-port (if the
packets are addressed to the v-port).
The no form of this command disables discard-unknown-source.
Default no discard-unknown-source

Syntax fdb-table-high-wmark high-water-mark
no fdb-table-high-wmark
Context config>card>mda>ring

(95%).
