In some implementations, a network device may receive one or more packets via an incoming interface of the network device. The network device may forward, or refraining from forwarding, based on a destination address associated with the one or more packets and the incoming interface of the network device, the one or more packets. The network device may receive, prior to receiving the one or more packets, route information indicating the destination address, and at least one of a set of one or more authorized incoming interfaces of the network device or a set of one or more authorized identifiers that are associated with the destination address and may save the route information in an entry of a data structure. Forwarding, or refraining from forwarding, the one or more packets may further be based on the entry of the data structure.

Traffic filtering based on destination address and incoming interface of a network device

A device may determine internet protocol (IP) traffic monitoring criteria and may monitor IP traffic based on the IP traffic monitoring criteria. The device may update, based on monitoring the IP traffic, a table of currently active IP traffic flows and may update, based on the table of currently active IP traffic flows, an address resolution protocol (ARP) packet filter. The device may receive one or more ARP packets from a different device and may determine whether to accept or discard the one or more ARP packets based on the ARP packet filter. The device may update an ARP table based on determining to accept the one or more ARP packets.

Preventing traffic outages during address resolution protocol (ARP) storms

A network monitoring system may receive a configuration request to generate a configuration file associated with collecting feature or debug data associated with a feature, hardware, or software associated with a network device. The network monitoring system may determine a command profile associated with the feature, hardware, or software that identifies a set of commands associated with obtaining the feature or debug data from the network device. The network monitoring system may determine respective parameters of one or more commands of the set of commands. The network monitoring system may determine, based on the respective parameters, respective arguments of the one or more commands. The network monitoring system may generate the configuration file based on the respective arguments and may perform an action associated with the configuration file to permit the configuration file to be used to collect the feature or debug data from the network device.
