Control Plane Policing Using IPv6ACL
Control Plane Policing (CoPP) is enhanced with Access Control List (ACL) support, enabling more precise classification and management of CPU-bound traffic. This update introduces ACL-based filtering for IPv6. IPv6 ACLs allow you to define which types of traffic are allowed, blocked, or limited, helping to improve security and network performance.
