The storm control function allows you to set the upper and lower thresholds for all three types of

packets separately on the same interface.

Configuration procedure

To configure storm control on an Ethernet interface:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Set the traffic polling interval

of the storm control module.

storm-constrain interval seconds

Optional.
The default setting is 10 seconds.

3.

Enter Ethernet interface view. interface interface-type

interface-number

N/A

4.

Enable storm control, and set
the lower and upper

thresholds for broadcast,
multicast, or unknown unicast

traffic.

storm-constrain { broadcast |
multicast | unicast } { pps | kbps |
ratio } max-pps-values

min-pps-values

By default, storm control is
disabled.

5.

Set the control action to take
when monitored traffic

exceeds the upper threshold.

storm-constrain control { block |
shutdown }

Optional.
No action is taken on an Ethernet
interface when a type of traffic

exceeds the upper storm control
threshold.

6.

Enable the interface to send
storm control threshold event

traps.

storm-constrain enable trap

Optional.
By default, the interface sends

traps when monitored traffic
exceeds the upper threshold or

drops below the lower threshold

from the upper threshold.

7.

Enable the interface to log
storm control threshold events. storm-constrain enable log

Optional.
By default, the interface outputs log

messages when monitored traffic
exceeds the upper threshold or

falls below the lower threshold

from the upper threshold.
