storm-control [broadcast level | multicast level | unicast level]
<rising level> <falling level>
Use the storm-control command to configure limits on the rates of broadcast, multicast, and unicast traffic
on a port. To disable storm-control, use the no version of this command.
Syntax Description
broadcast level Sets levels for br oadcast traffic.
multicast level Sets levels for multicast traffic.
unicast level Sets levels for unicast traffic.
<rising level> Specifies a rising level which determines the percentage of total bandwidth the
port accepts before it begins blocking packets. Range: 0-100 percent.
<falling level> Specifies a falling level which determines when the storm is considered over,
causing the AOS to no longer block packets. This level must be less than the
rising level. Range: 0 to 100 percent.
Default Values
By default, storm-control is disabled.
Applicable Platforms
This command applies to the NetVanta 300, 1000, and 1000R Series units.
Command History
Release 5.1 Command was introduced.
Functional Notes
This setting configures the rising and falling suppression values. When the selected rising level (which is a
percentage of total bandwidth) is reached, the port begins blocking packets of the specified type (i.e.,
broadcast, multicast, or unicast). The AOS uses the rising level as its falling level if no falling level is
specified.
