System Notification Messages
1. The excessive traffic alarm is set if the count of Ethernet packets received in one second exceeds a
threshold. All traffic received by the TP5000 IOC ports is counted, such as ARP, ICMP, IGMP, PTP unicast
signaling, and PTP management messages. In unicast mode, PTP delay requests are not counted. In
multicast mode, all PTP announce messages are counted, and less than 1% of the PTP delay requests are
also counted toward the limit. PTP sync and delay response messages are never counted. NTP requests
are not counted.
Threshold:
 Main shelf for releases 1.2 between 2.0, inclusive: 512 packets/sec for each port, or 1024
packets/sec with port redundancy enabled
 Expansion shelf: 512 packets/sec for each group of 8 ports (1-8 and 9-16)
