| Description |
|---|
| A network element experiencing a DoS attack will not be able to handle production traffic load. The high utilization and CPU caused by a DoS attack will also have an effect on control keep-alives and timers used for neighbor peering resulting in route flapping and eventually black hole production traffic. The device must be configured to thwart, counter, or prevent such attacks. |
