Holddown timers?

Are there any holddown timers to guard against "brown" failures? For example, if an HBA goes bad and does 2000 FLOGI's within a couple of seconds, can the switch shut down that port for a specified length of time?

Not right now. I spoke with the software engineers and they agree this would be a good idea. Such a thing should be implemented in hardware instead of software and right now, the hardware would not support it. Maybe we can get it into the next generation of blades.
