Configuring storm suppression for an Ethernet interface

CAUTION:

On an interface card, the thresholds for different types of traffic must use the same unit of measurement.
For example, if you have configured the broadcast-suppression kbps

max-kbps command for one

interface on an interface card, you cannot configure the multicast-suppression pps

max-pps command

for any other interface on the interface card.

On an interface, you can configure only one traffic threshold. For example, if you have configured the
broadcast-suppression kbps

100 command on an interface, you cannot configure a command like

unicast-suppression kbps

200 or multicast-suppression kbps 200 on it.

You can suppress the broadcast, unknown multicast, and unknown unicast traffic passing through an

Ethernet interface by setting a traffic threshold. When the traffic threshold is exceeded, the interface

drops excessive packets.
To configure the storm suppression function for an Ethernet interface:

Step Command

Remarks

50.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

51.

Enter Ethernet interface

view or port group view.

Enter Ethernet interface view:

interface interface-type
interface-number

Enter port group view:

port-group manual

port-group-name

Use either command.
Configurations made in interface view
take effect on the current interface only.

Configurations made in port group view

take effect on all interfaces in the group.

52.

Configure broadcast

suppression.

broadcast-suppression { pps
max-pps
| kbps max-kbps }

Optional.
By default, all broadcast traffic can pass
through an Ethernet interface.

53.

Configure unknown

multicast suppression.

multicast-suppression { kbps
max-kbps
| pps max-pps }

Optional.
By default, all unknown multicast traffic
can pass through an Ethernet interface.

54.

Configure unknown

unicast suppression.

unicast-suppression { kbps
max-kbps
| pps max-pps }

Optional.
By default, all unknown unicast traffic can
pass through an Ethernet interface.

Configuring jumbo frame support

An Ethernet interface might receive some frames larger than the standard Ethernet frame size (called

jumbo frames) during high-throughput data exchanges such as file transfers. Usually, an Ethernet

interface discards jumbo frames. With jumbo frame support enabled, the interface can process frames

larger than the standard Ethernet frame size yet within the specified range.
To configure jumbo frame support on Ethernet interfaces:
