16.13 Broadcast Storm Control
Broadcast storm control limits the number of broadcast, multicast and destination lookup
failure (DLF) packets the switch receives per second on the ports. When the maximum number
of allowable broadcast, multicast and/or DLF packets is reached per second, the subsequent
packets are discarded. Enable this feature to reduce broadcast, multicast and/or DLF packets in
your network.
To open the configuration screen, right-click on the switch in the Device List Panel, and click
