[<portlist> | all] {[action [drop | shutdown] | countdown [0 | <minutes 5-30>] |
broadcast | multicast | unicast | threshold <value 0- 1024000> | time_interval
<time_interval 5-30>]} [enable | disable]

config traffic control [<portlist> | all] {[action [drop | shutdown]
| countdown [0 | <minutes 5-30>] | broadcast | multicast |
unicast | threshold <value 0 - 1024000> | time_interval
<time_interval 5-30>]} [enable | disable]
The config traffic control command configures broadcast,
multicast and unknown unicast storm control.
<portlist> - A port or range of ports to be configured.

multicast – Enables broadcast and multicast storm control.
•
unicast – Enables broadcast and unicast storm control.
threshold <value 0-1024000> − The upper threshold at which the
specified traffic control is switched on. The value is the number of
broadcast/multicast/dlf packets, in Kbps, received by the Switch that
will trigger the storm traffic control measures. The value ranges in
size from 0 to 1024000 Kbps. The default setting is 64 Kbit/sec.
