Constantly receiving the below alert by email (for both e0e & e0f even though they are in an ifgrp). Can’t find anything about it on the KB and would be interested to know how to increase the threshold and thoughts on doing so?

---

Severity: LOG_ERR

Message: netif.rateLimitThreshold: High rate limit on network interface e0e for broadcast protocol ARP being detected: 5001 pkts/sec.

Description: This message occurs when the protocol rate threshold is reached on a network interface.

Action: Fix the faulty network configuration or incorrect setup that enables a sudden spike in broadcast packets to bring down the node. If you still want a high ARP rate threshold, use the "bootarg.arp.ratelimit.threshold" boot argument to set that threshold.
