Configuring Broadcast Storm Control
Use the Broadcast Storm Filtering page to set the broadcast threshold. Broadcast storms may occur when a device on your network is malfunctioning, or if application programs are not well designed or properly configured. If there is too much broadcast traffic on your network, performance can be severely degraded or everything can come to a complete halt.
You can protect your network from broadcast storms by setting a maximum threshold for broadcast traffic. The percentage of a port’s total bandwidth used by broadcast traffic. When broadcast traffic rises above the specified threshold, broadcast packets exceeding that threshold will then be dropped. (Range: NO, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25%; Default: NO)
Console – Click Switch Static Configuration=>Misc Configuration=> Broadcast Storm Filtering. Specify the broadcast storm filter threshold, and save your settings.
