Broadcast Storm Control

This chapter introduces and shows you how to configure the broadcast storm control feature.

13.1 Broadcast Storm Control Setup

Broadcast storm control limits the number of broadcast, multicast and destination lookup
failure (DLF) packets the Switch receives per second on the ports. When the maximum
number of allowable broadcast, multicast and/or DLF packets is reached per second, the
subsequent packets are discarded. Enable this feature to reduce broadcast, multicast and/or
DLF packets in your network. You can specify limits for each packet type on each port.
Click Advanced Application > Broadcast Storm Control in the navigation panel to display
the screen as shown next.
