Select:

Select the desired port for Rate configuration. It is multi-optional.

Port:

Displays the port number of the switch.

Ingress Rate (bps):

Configure the bandwidth for receiving packets on the port. You

 

can select a rate from the dropdown list or select "Manual" to set

 

Ingress rate, the system will automatically select integral multiple

 

of 64Kbps that closest to the rate you entered as the real Ingress

 

rate.

Egress Rate(bps):

Configure the bandwidth for sending packets on the port. You can

 

select a rate from the dropdown list or select "Manual" to set

 

Egress rate, the system will automatically select integral multiple

 

of 64Kbps that closest to the rate you entered as the real Egress

 

rate.

LAG:

Displays the LAG number which the port belongs to.

 

 

Note:

 

 

 

1.If you enable ingress rate limit feature for the storm control-enabled port, storm control feature will be disabled for this port.

2.When selecting "Manual" to set Ingress/Egress rate, the system will automatically select integral multiple of 64Kbps that closest to the rate you entered as the real Ingress/Egress rate. For example, if you enter 1000Kbps for egress rate, the system will automatically select 1024Kbps as the real Egress rate.

3.When egress rate limit feature is enabled for one or more ports, you are suggested to disable the flow control on each port to ensure the switch works normally.

9.2.2 Storm Control

Storm Control function allows the switch to filter broadcast, multicast and UL frame in the network. If the transmission rate of the three kind packets exceeds the set bandwidth, the packets will be automatically discarded to avoid network broadcast storm.
