Issue Description

There is nothing connected by LAN or WIFI and the equipment MA5800-X17 is consuming approx 12007 kbps:

Handling Process

Query the traffic of the ONT. The downstream traffic sent to the ONT is about 12000 kbps

 

sent to the ONT is about 12000 kbps

Query the traffic of the service flow. It is found that the downstream traffic is equivalent to the traffic of the ONT.

traffic is equivalent to the traffic of the ONT

Capture packets on service flows. The downstream traffic is unicast packets sent by the MAC address –91bf and vlan 157.

sent by the MAC address 91bf and vlan 157

Query the MAC address 91bf information on the device. It is found that the MAC address is 0/10/0 and has multiple VLANs

has multiple VLANs

Query the DMAC 9b6f the captured packets on the service flow,at the device does not learn the MAC address. The unknown unicast packets are converted into broadcast packets and broadcast in the same VLAN. Therefore, the packets are broadcast to the service flow and then to the ONT.

broadcast to the service flow and then to the ONT

Root Cause

Many unknown unicast packets with MAC address 91bf are sent from upstream port 0/10/0. The packets are broadcast and forwarded to VLAN 157. As a result, traffic is transmitted on the ONT.

Solution

The MAC address –91bf sends many VLANs packets from the upstream port. It is recommended that customer check the device on his network side.
