◆ The port MTU size can be displayed with the show show interfaces
status command.
E XAMPLE
The following first enables jumbo frames for layer 2 packets, and then sets
the MTU for port 1:
Console(config)#jumbo frame
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/1
Console(config-if)#switchport mtu 9216
Console(config-if)#
R ELATED C OMMANDS
jumbo frame (776)
show interfaces status (1010)
switchport packet-
rate
This command configures broadcast, multicast and unknown unicast storm
control. Use the no form to restore the default setting.
S YNTAX
switchport {broadcast | multicast | unicast} packet-rate rate
no switchport {broadcast | multicast | unicast}
rate - Threshold level as a rate; i.e., packets per second.
(Range: 500-1,488,000 for Gigabit Ethernet ports, 500-14,880,000
for Gigabit Ethernet ports)
D EFAULT S ETTING
Broadcast Storm Control: Enabled, packet-rate limit: 500 pps
Multicast Storm Control: Disabled
Unknown Unicast Storm Control: Disabled

◆ When traffic exceeds the threshold specified for broadcast and
multicast or unknown unicast traffic, packets exceeding the threshold
are dropped until the rate falls back down beneath the threshold.
◆ Traffic storms can be controlled at the hardware level using this
command or at the software level using the auto-traffic-control
command. However, only one of these control types can be applied to a
port. Enabling hardware-level storm control on a port will disable
automatic storm control on that port.
