Microburst Detection
672
G8264 Command Reference for ENOS 8.4
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 Configuration Options
Command Syntax and Usage
[no] microburst enable
Enables or disables microburst detection.
The default setting is disabled.
Command mode: Global configuration
microburst interval <2‐10000>
Configures microburst detection interval granularity in milliseconds.
The default setting is 5 miliseconds.
Command mode: Global configuration
microburst portthreshold <port alias or number> <1‐42650>
Configures the number of memory cells a port is allowed to access from the
shared service pool. There is no dedicated number of memory cells for a port.
If this threshold is reached, it means the port is congested and needs to access
additional memory from the shared service pool.
The default value is 42650.
Command mode: Global configuration
show microburst microburststatus
Displays microburst state and, if applicable, bursting time for each port.
Command mode: All
show microburst pktstats
Displays memory cell usage for egress unicast and multicast packets, broken
down by port and QoS queue.
Command mode: All
show microburst portlog
Displays memory cell allocation and usage for ingress packets on each port.
Command mode: All
