PFE_FW_DELETE_MISMATCH_ERR

System Log Message

Instance mismatch for type (installed-firewall-name != deleted-firewall-name) ifl logical-interface-index family protocol-family

PFE_NH_RESOLVE_THROTTLED

System Log Message

Next-hop resolution requests from interface logical-interface-index throttled

Description

The Packet Forwarding Engine throttled next-hop resolution requests from the indicated interface, because the high number of requests might constitute an attempted denial-of-service (DoS) attack. Examples of events that generate next-hop resolution requests include an attempt to forward a packet without an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) entry and receiving a multicast data packet with no matching route. Normally, the Packet Forwarding Engine forwards the requests to the Routing Engine.
