Broadcast Storm Control
13.1 Introducing Broadcast Storm Control
Broadcast storm control limits the number of broadcast, multicast and destination lookup
failure (DLF) packets the switch receives per second on the ports. When the maximum number
of allowable broadcast, multicast and/or DLF packets is reached per second, the subsequent
packets are discarded. Enable this feature to reduce broadcast, multicast and/or DLF packets in
your network. You can specify limits for each packet type on each port.
13.2 Configuring Broadcast Storm Control
Click Advanced Application, Broadcast Storm Control in the navigation panel to display
the screen as shown next.
