| Hi Kings, The logging interval sets the time between to log messages: "There is also an option to configure the rate-limit interval for which log messages are created, that is the interval between the logging of two messages" Go to the IOS 12.4T, Configuring Control Plane Security, Control Plane logging and search for logging interval It's basically protection. Suppose a hacker "assumes" that you have logging enabled on a specific access-list, or some other traffic. It could then overload the router if it would hit that access-list continuously, and thus making sure that the router is only processing the log messages and doesn't have sufficient time for the other stuff the control plane is supposed to do (arp, routing protocols, etc) HTH Pieter-Jan On 14 mei 2010, at 08:05, Kingsley Charles wrote:
