D-Link DGS-3212SR Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Switch
Traffic or storm control is used to stop broadcast, multicast, or ARP request storms that may result when a loop
is created. The Destination Look Up Failure control is a method of shutting down a loop when a storm is formed
because a MAC address cannot be located in the Switch's forwarding database and it must send a packet to all
ports or all ports on a VLAN.
To configure Traffic Control, select the Unit (Unit ID of a switch in a switch stack − 15 for a switch in
standalone mode) you want to configure. Broadcast Storm, Multicast Storm, and Destination Look Up
Failure may be Enabled or Disabled. The Threshold value is the upper threshold at which the specified traffic
control is switched on. This is the number of Broadcast, Multicast, or DLF packets, in Kbps, received by the
switch that will trigger the storm traffic control measures. The Threshold value can be set from 0 to 255 packets.
The Default setting is 128.
