-- Loaded tmm that cannot consume packets fast enough. -- AFM DoS flood mitigation is taking place.

There is now a sys db tunable (sys db dos.scrubtime) which can be set to drop DoS attack packets in hardware more aggressively. This will prevent other non-attack packets from being dropped indiscriminately.
