Abstract
A network device may limit the rate at which control messages are forwarded to a destination device when forwarding traffic pursuant to dynamic flow capture (DFC). In one implementation, a system may receive filtering criteria associated with DFC of network traffic and passively filter incoming traffic based on the filtering criteria to obtain traffic that matches the filtering criteria. The system may transmit a rate limited version of control messages associated with the filtered traffic to a control device.
