Description

Broadcast control on all

ports

Allows you to enable/disable broadcast storm control for

all ports on the switch.

Threshold

The packet-per-second threshold at which broadcast

control will be employed on the port.

(Default is 500 pps.)

Broadcast Control

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.

(Default is Enabled.)
