Thanks for comments. This is very valuable info. What are your thoughts
about:
flow udp default rate 0
flow tcp default rate 0

Are they safe to use? Cisco did not recommend them but I dont understand
why. And they failed to explain. Maybe because they dont understand
themselves either ;)

According to my tests without those configs e.g. unauthorized [1] ssh is
probably punted because router replies with tcp rst (actually multiple rst
packets). After tcp default 0 router does not send response which is better

[1] control-plane management-plane ... allow ssh peer
