SET SWITCH PORT BCLIMIT

Syntax

set switch port=port bclimit=broadcastlimit

Parameters

port

Specifies the port where you want to configure the
broadcast limit. You can specify more than one port
at a time. You can specify the ports individually (e.g.,
2,3,5), as a range (e.g., 7-9), or both (e.g., 2,5,7-9).

bclimit

Specifies the maximum number of broadcast frames

the port will transmit during the interval specified by
the broadcast timer. The range is 0 to 1023. The
default is “0”, which disables frame control on the
port.

Description

This command specifies the maximum number of egress broadcast
frames the port will transmit during the interval specified by the
broadcast timer. Egress broadcast frames over the maximum number
are discarded by the port.

To view the broadcast frame limits on the ports, use the SHOW SWITCH
PORT command. To set the broadcast timer, refer to the SET SWITCH
BROADCAST command.

Examples

This command sets the broadcast limit on port 4 to 100 egress broadcast
packets:

set switch port=5 bclimit=100

This command disables the broadcast limit on ports 7 and 12:

set switch port=7,12 bclimit=0
