ONFIGURATION

Port Broadcast Control

Broadcast storms may occur when a device on your network is

malfunctioning, or if application programs are not well designed or

properly configured. If there is too much broadcast traffic on your

network, performance can be severely degraded or everything can come to

complete halt.

You can protect your network from broadcast storms by setting a

threshold for broadcast traffic for each port. Any broadcast packets

exceeding the specified threshold will then be dropped.

Field Attributes

• Enable Broadcast Storm Control – Click to select the boxt to enable

Broadcast Storm Control.

• Bandwidth Limit – Threshold as percentage of port bandwidth. This

field accepts an integer value in the range 1 to 100. The value specifies

the percentage of the available input bandwidth that can be made

available for broadcast and multicast traffic. The same percentage

threshold is applied to every port on the switch. When the threshold is

exceeded, packets are dropped, irrespective of the flow control settings.

Web – Click PORTS, Broadcast Control. This page enables you to set the

broadcast storm control parameters for every port on the Switch.
