Ingress Rate; Egress Rate; Mac Filter - HP ProCurve MSM317 Installation And Getting Started Manual

Ingress rate

Set the maximum rate at which this port will accept ingress traffic. Traffic in excess of the set
rate is dropped. When using this option you should enable Flow control. This will ensure
that a client device does not send traffic in excess of the ingress limit. (Providing that the
client device supports flow control.)
Traffic
Select the type of traffic to which rate limiting applies: Broadcast, Broadcast and
multicast, or All (broadcast, multicast, and unicast).

Egress rate

Set the maximum rate at which this port will send traffic. This rate applies to all outgoing
traffic (broadcast, multicast, and unicast). Traffic in excess of the set rate is delayed.
Traffic
Indicates the type of traffic to which egress rate limiting applies. It is set to All (broadcast,
multicast, and unicast), and cannot be changed.

MAC filter

This option lets you control port access based on client station MAC addresses. Addresses
are checked against one or more lists stored on the MSM7xx Controller. If the MAC address
of a connected device appears in any selected list, then the device is permitted to send and
receive traffic on the port.
To configure MAC-based filters on an MSM317 switch port, do the following:
1. Open the management tool on the MSM7xx Controller.
2. Select Controller >> Authentication > MAC lists.
