ge.1.4	0	14881

set port broadcast

Use this command to set the broadcast suppression threshold, in packets per second, on one or more ports. This sets a threshold on the broadcast traffic that is received and switched out to other ports.

Syntax

set port broadcast port-string threshold-val

Parameters

port‐string	Select the ports for which to configure broadcast suppression thresholds.
	For a detailed description of possible port‐string values, refer to “Port
	String Syntax Used in the CLI” on page 7‐1.
threshold‐val	Sets the packets per second threshold on broadcast traffic. Maximum
	value is
	• 148810 for Fast Ethernet ports
	• 1488100 for 1‐Gigabit ports.
	• 14881000 for 10‐ Gigabit ports

Defaults

None.

Mode

Switch command, read‐write.

Usage

Per port broadcast suppression is hardset to be globally enabled on the C3. If you would like to disable broadcast suppression, you can get the same result by setting the threshold limit for each port to the maximum number of packets which can be received per second as listed in the parameters section, above. The default broadcast suppression threshold for all ports is set to 14881.

Example

This example configures ports 1 through 5 with a broadcast limit of 50 pps:

C3(su)->set port broadcast ge.1.1-5 50

clear port broadcast

Use this command to clear the broadcast threshold limit to the default value of 14881 for the selected port.

Syntax

clear port broadcast port-stringthreshold
