Dampening – Example II
No window:
Half-life of 30 minutes, reuse-limit of 750, suppress-limit of 3000, and max-suppress-time of 60
max-penalty = 750 * 2^(60/30) = 3000
Here the max-penalty is equal to the suppress-limit
The penalty can only go as high as 3000.
The decay begins immediately, so the penalty will be lower than 3000 by the time an advertisement is received.
A route could consistently flap several times a minute and never be suppressed
