Port Broadcast Storm Protect Configuration

Use the Port Broadcast Storm Protect Configuration screen to configure
broadcast storm control for any port on the switch.

Parameter

Default Description

Broadcast Storm

Protect Mode

Enabled

Allows you to enable/disable broadcast storm

control for all ports on the switch.

Protect Status

Enabled

Enables/disables broadcast control for the

port. When enabled, the switch will employ a

broadcast-control mechanism if the

packet-per-second threshold is exceeded. This

mechanism limits the amount of broadcasts

passed by the port to half of the received

packet-per-second count. The control

mechanism remains in effect until the number

of received broadcasts falls back below the

packet-per-second threshold.

Threshold

500

The packet-per-second threshold at which

broadcast control will be employed on the port.
