no port storm-control broadcast enable

Default Configuration

Broadcast storm control is disabled.

Command Modes

Interface Configuration (Ethernet) mode

User Guidelines

Use the port storm-control broadcast rate Interface Configuration mode command, to set the maximum allowable broadcast rate.

Multicast can be counted as part of the "storm" frames if the port storm-control include- multicast Global Configuration mode command is already executed.

Example

The following example enables broadcast storm control on port g5.

Console(config)# interface ethernet g5

Console(config-if)#port storm-control broadcast enable

port storm-control broadcast rate

The port storm-control broadcast rate Interface Configuration mode command configures the maximum broadcast rate. Use the no form of this command to return to the default value.

port storm-control broadcast rate rate

no port storm-control broadcast rate

rate—Maximum kilobytes per second of broadcast and multicast traffic on a port. (Rate:

0-65535)

Default Configuration

The default storm control broadcast rate is 1000.

Command Mode

Global Configuration mode

User Guidelines

Use the port storm-control broadcast enable Interface Configuration mode command to enable broadcast storm control.

The granularity is 1 - 64K packets. Note that if the rate is 0, broadcast packets are not forwarded.
