Ethernet Port Configuration Commands

broadcast-suppression { ratio | pps max-pps | kbps max-bps }

undo broadcast-suppression

Ethernet port view, port group view

Default Level

2: System level

ratio: Maximum percentage of broadcast traffic to the total transmission capability of an Ethernet port.

The smaller the ratio, the less broadcast traffic is allowed to pass through the interface. This argument

ranges from 1 to 100. The system default is 100.

pps max-pps: Specifies the maximum number of broadcast packets that can be forwarded on an

Ethernet port per second, in the range 1 to 1488100 (in pps, representing packets per second).

kbps max-bps: Specifies the maximum number of broadcast kilobits that can be forwarded on an

Ethernet port per second, in the range 1 to 1024000 (in kbps, representing kilobits per second).

Use the broadcast-suppression command to set a broadcast traffic threshold on one or multiple

Ethernet ports.

Use the undo broadcast-suppression command to restore the default.

By default, broadcast traffic is not suppressed.

If you execute this command in Ethernet port view, the configuration takes effect only on the current

interface. If you execute this command in port-group view, the configuration takes effect on all the ports

in the port group.

When broadcast traffic exceeds the broadcast traffic threshold, the system begins to discard broadcast

packets until the broadcast traffic drops below the threshold to ensure operation of network services.
