Broadcast Storm Control

Use the Broadcast Storm Control page to enable/disable broadcast suppression

on a per-port basis. You can also set the broadcast-rate threshold above which

broadcast packets will be discarded. The parameters are shown in the following

figure and table.

Parameter Description

broadcast packets are discarded if the packets-per-second threshold rate is

exceeded. (The default is disabled.)

Filtering Threshold The broadcast-rate threshold above which broadcast packets are discarded.

The default is 10240 packets per second. (Range is 1024 - 353,422 pps.)
