The specific effects are as follows:z The resources on the server are exhausted, so the server does not respond to other requests.z After receiving such type of packets, a switch needs to send them to the CPU for processing. Toomany request packets cause high CPU usage rate. As a result, the CPU cannot work normally.z The switch can filter invalid IP packets through the DHCP-snooping table and IP static bindingtable.DHCP-snooping tableAfter DHCP snooping is enabled on a switch, a DHCP-snooping table is generated. It is used to recordIP addresses obtained from the DHCP server, MAC addresses, the number of the port through which aclient is connected to the DHCP-snooping-enabled device, and the number of the VLAN to which theport belongs to. These records are saved as entries in the DHCP-snooping table.IP static binding tableThe DHCP-snooping table only records information about clients that obtains IP address dynamicallythrough DHCP. If a fixed IP address is configured for a client, the IP address and MAC address of theclient cannot be recorded in the DHCP-snooping table. Consequently, this client cannot pass the IPfiltering of the DHCP-snooping table, thus it cannot access external networks.To solve this problem, the switch supports the configuration of static binding table entries, that is, thebinding relationship between IP address, MAC address, and the port connecting to the client, so thatpackets of the client can be correctly forwarded.IP filteringThe switch can filter IP packets in the following two modes:
