Command Line Interface

Default Setting

Enabled for all ports

Packet-rate limit: 500 packets per second

Command Mode

Interface Configuration (Ethernet)

Command Usage

When broadcast traffic exceeds the specified threshold, packets above that threshold are dropped.

This command can enable or disable broadcast storm control for the selected interface. However, the specified threshold value applies to all ports on the switch.

Example

The following shows how to configure broadcast storm control at 600 packets per second:

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5

Console(config-if)#switchport broadcast packet-rate 600

Console(config-if)#

clear counters

This command clears statistics on an interface.

Syntax

Default Setting

None

Command Mode

Privileged Exec

Command Usage

Statistics are only initialized for a power reset. This command sets the base value for displayed statistics to zero for the current management session. However, if you log out and back into the management interface, the statistics displayed will show the absolute value accumulated since the last power reset.
