I'm with Cornell on this one. C and D are the way to go. Although, I have to admit, the idea of regulating the OOBM port sounds a bit like something out of a spy movie. 'The enemy is in the OOBM, I repeat, the enemy is in the OOBM!'

Hold up, does anyone else find it funny that we're trying to mitigate a 'denial of service' attack by setting the processing priority? That's like trying to fix a broken leg with a bandaid!

User 1: Yeah, it does seem a bit counterintuitive.

B is just weird. Why would we create a policy for the payload of GRE traffic? That doesn't seem relevant to the issue at hand. A and D are the clear winners here.

I think C and D are the way to go. Regulating the OOBM Ethernet port and applying multiple active policies seem like the most logical steps to mitigate the DoS attack.

Setting the processing priority could also be beneficial in this situation.

I agree, regulating the OOBM Ethernet port can help control the traffic.

I'm not sure about applying multiple active policies for the classes of traffic. I think focusing on setting the processing priority and regulating specific traffic is more effective.

I agree with Luz. Setting the processing priority will help manage the stress on the management processor, and regulating traffic from the OOBM Ethernet port will help control the flow of traffic.

I think we should set the processing priority and regulate traffic from the OOBM Ethernet port.
