CPM queues provides the operator with a tool that is primarily useful for debugging or investigations during an attack. When using the CPM queues, the following recommendations should be considered.
CPM queues can be used for temporary debug or attack investigation activities, in this case packets can be filtered and directed into the queue using the CPM filter.
CPM queues are not recommended for normal operation where the system default handling and isolation of protocols into protocol queues is already carefully balanced.
