Understanding Control Plane Policing

Control Plane Policing is a security measure that involves limiting and monitoring the traffic directed to network devices in order to protect the control plane infrastructure. It helps prevent denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, unauthorized access, and other malicious activities that could disrupt or compromise the operation of network devices by controlling the traffic that is allowed to reach the control plane.
