Configuring Autorecovery for Port Security Events

date_range 24-Nov-23

You can have the device automatically restore interfaces that have been disabled due to MAC limiting, MAC move limiting, or storm control conditions by configuring the recovery-timeout statement.

  • EX and QFX Series:

    content_copy zoom_out_map
    [edit interfaces interface-name unit 0 family ethernet-switching]
    user@switch# set recovery-timeout 60  
  • MX Series:

    content_copy zoom_out_map
    [edit interfaces interface-name unit 0 family bridge]
    user@switch# set recovery-timeout 60  

An interface may shut down or be disabled as a result of one of the following port-security or storm-control configurations:

  • Storm control—The storm-control statement is configured with the action-shutdown statement, or the action shutdown, depending on the platform you are using.

  • MAC limiting—(Not supported on MX Series routers) The mac-limit statement is configured with the action-shutdown statement, or the action shutdown, depending on the platform you are using.

  • MAC move limiting—(Not supported on MX Series routers) The mac-move-limit statement is configured with the action-shutdown statement, or the action shutdown, depending on the platform you are using.

There is no default, so unless the statement is explicitly configured, you will need to manually restore the interfaces by running a clear command.
