Configuring the Maximum Broadcast Frame Count
To specify the maximum number of broadcast frames a port on the
switch can transmit, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 1 to select Port Menu.
2. From the Port Menu, type 1 to select Port Configuration.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter Ports List ->
3. Enter the port(s) that you want to configure and press Return.
The Port Configuration menu is shown in Figure 14 on page 69.
4. Type B to select Broadcast Control.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter Max. Broadcasts (0 -> No limit):
[0 to 1023] - >
5. Specify the maximum number of broadcast frames the port can
transmit during the timer interval. Press Return.
For example, assume that you are specifying the maximum
broadcast frame count for a port operating at 100 Mbps, and you
specified a 10 millisecond interval timer for 100 Mbps ports. If you
entered a value of 200 at the prompt, the port would transmit a
maximum of 200 broadcast frames every 10 milliseconds. Any
broadcast frames over the maximum are discarded by the port
and are not transmitted.
Entering a value of “0” disables Broadcast Storm Control on the
port.
Your changes are immediately activated on the switch.
6. Type S to select Save Configuration Changes.
