Description - 3Com S7906E Command Reference Manual

If you execute this command in Ethernet interface, 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.
If you set different suppression ratios in Ethernet interface view or port-group view for multiple
times, the latest configuration takes effect.
Do not use the broadcast-suppression command along with the storm-constrain command.
Otherwise, the broadcast storm suppression ratio configured may get invalid.
On an Ethernet port enabled with broadcast storm suppression ratio, this feature takes effect only
in the inbound direction.
Examples
# For Ethernet interface Ethernet 2/0/1, allow broadcast traffic equivalent to 20% of the total
transmission capability of Ethernet 2/0/1 to pass.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface ethernet 2/0/1
[Sysname-Ethernet2/0/1] broadcast-suppression 20
# For all the ports of the manual port group named group1, allow broadcast traffic equivalent to 20% of
the total transmission capability of each port to pass and suppress excessive broadcast packets.
