Default Description
Enabled Allows you to enable/disable broadcast storm
control for all ports on the switch.
Enabled Enables/disables broadcast control for the
port. When enabled, the switch will employ a
broadcast-control mechanism if the
packet-per-second threshold is exceeded. This
mechanism limits the amount of broadcasts
passed by the port to half of the received
packet-per-second count. The control
mechanism remains in effect until the number
of received broadcasts falls back below the
packet-per-second threshold.
500 The packet-per-second threshold at which
broadcast control will be employed on the port.
