But you said the router's CPU was fine, which means the policer did its job. The policer can't differentiate between looped (bad) ARP packets and good ARP packets, so it is to be expected that some legitimate ARPs ended up getting dropped. As others have said, you can manually apply your own ARP policer to individual physical/logical interfaces so that a loop on one interface doesn't break ARP on another. -Terry _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
