Microbursts are short peaks in data traffic that manifest as a sudden increase in the
number of data packets transmitted over a specific millisecond‐level time frame,
potentially overwhelming network buffers. Microburst detection allows users to
analyze and mitigate microburst‐related incidents, thus preventing network
congestion.
Microburst Detection is disabled by default. To enable it, use the following
command:
NE2552E(config)# microburst enable
To disable microburst detection, use the following command:
NE2552E(config)# no microburst enable
To configure the polling interval (in milliseconds) used by microburst detection to
evaluate traffic burst:
NE2552E(config)# microburst interval <2‐10000>
To see the current microburst state, use the following command:
NE2552E# show microburst microburst-status
Below is a basic configuration example for Microburst Detection.
value:
NE2552E(config)# microburst enable
NE2552E(config)# microburst port-threshold ext4 10000
NE2552E(config)# microburst interval 100
