Hello
Thank you for the explanation.
I was reading about CoPP and I read on a forum an example on why to use it.
It was mentioned that if for example you want to filter traffic to an outside interface with an access list , and someone manage to send a lot of traffic to that interface , even though the traffic will be dropped as it matches the drop action in the access list ,this will have an impact on CPU .
On the other hand with CoPP you will have a silent drop meaning packets will never reach CPU .
In this example applying an access list to an interface for this purpose isn’t the same as CoPP ?
Or it is correct as an example?
Moreover ,do Access lists sent traffic to CPU while receive Access Lists don’t ?
Thanks again
