apply copp-policy

Syntax

apply copp-policy { <NAME> | default }

no apply copp-policy <NAME>

Description

Applies a CoPP policy to the switch, replacing the policy that is in effect. There may be a brief interruption in traffic flow to the management processor while the switch implements the change.

Enter the no apply copp-policy <NAME> command with the name of a CoPP policy to unapply a CoPP policy and apply the default CoPP policy. This will only take effect if the specified policy is actively applied. Since there must always be a CoPP policy applied, this command effectively attempts to replace the applied CoPP policy with the default CoPP policy. The default CoPP policy cannot be unapplied using this command.

Examples

Applying a policy named My_CoppPolicy:

switch(config)# apply copp-policy My_CoppPolicy

Applying the default policy:

switch(config)# apply copp-policy default
