This MES-2110 can detect excessive broadcasts or transmission load on a port and
temporarily or permanently block traffic transmission on each port. Use this
screen to configure the MES-2110’s threshold settings for blocking a port. You can
also have the Switch unblock a port when it is no longer receiving large broadcast
packets.

Abnormal Traffic

Set the rules for abnormal traffic in the fields described below.

Threshold

Specify a threshold value (in broadcast packets per second). If
transmission load on a port exceeds this threshold, the MES-2110
blocks the port. The block can be blocked permanently or for a
period of time, depending on what you specify in this screen (see
fields below).
