have to send out broadcast packets to be relearned by the switch and have its
address put in the table. The valid range is 300 to765 seconds. Default is 300
seconds.
6-3-8-2. Broadcast Storm Filtering
Broadcast storm filtering is used to limit the amount of broadcast traffic on the
network. An excessive amount of broadcast traffic can inhibit data packets
from timely delivery.
The valid threshold values are 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and N/A. If the
broadcast traffic is greater than the configured value, broadcast packets will be
dropped. The default is N/A. The default is set so that no broadcast packets
are ever dropped no matter how many broadcast packets there are on the
network.
6-3-8-3. Max Bridge Transmit Delay Bound
Max bridge transmit delay bound (0,1-4 sec): Limits the packets queuing
time in the switch. If enabled, the packets exceeding the queuing time will be
dropped. Press the Space key to set the time. Valid values are 1sec, 2sec, 4sec
and OFF. The default is 1 second when this feature is enabled. This setting
does not depend on what values are set in the “Priority Configuration” menu.
Low Queue Delay Bound: If this parameter is enabled, the “Max bridge
transmit delay bound” must also be configured. This item allows you to limit
queuing time of the low priority packets in the switch. When the low priority
packets exceed the “Max Delay Time” they will be transmitted. Press the Space
key to enable or disable this function. By default the Enable Delay Bound is set
to OFF.
