Allied Telesyn AT-9724TS High-Density Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch • Command Line Interface Reference Manual
Parameters
[<storm_grouplist> | all ] { broadcast [enable | disable] | multicast [enable | disable] | dlf [enable | disable] |
threshold <value 0-255> }
{group_list <storm_grouplist>}
Used to configure broadcast/multicast traffic control.
config traffic control [<storm_grouplist> | all] {broadcast [enable | disable] | multicast
[enable | disable] | dlf [enable | disable] | threshold <value 0-255>}
This command is used to configure broadcast storm control.
<storm_grouplist> – Used to specify a broadcast storm control group.This is specified by listing the lowest
switch number and the beginning port number on that switch, separated by a colon.Then the highest switch
number, and the highest port number of the range (also separated by a colon) are specified.The beginning and
end of the port list range are separated by a dash. For example, 1:3 specifies switch number 1, port 3. 2:4
specifies switch number 2, port 4. 1:3-2:4 specifies all of the ports between switch 1, port 3 and switch 2, port 4
– in numerical order.
all – Specifies all broadcast storm control groups on the Switch.
broadcast [enable | disable] – Enables or disables broadcast storm control.
multicast [enable | disable] – Enables or disables multicast storm control.
dlf [enable | disable] – Enables or disables dlf traffic control.
threshold <value 0-255> – The upper threshold at which the specified traffic control is switched on.The <value>
is the number of broadcast/multicast/dlf packets, in kilopackets per second (Kpps), received by the Switch that
will trigger the storm traffic control measures.
Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
