Multicast rate limiting
Multicast rate limiting provides a mechanism to control multicast frame replication and cap the
effect of multicast traffic. For additional information, refer to the Network OS Administrator’s Guide.
NOTE
Multicast rate limiting is not supported on VDX 8770-4 and VDX 8770-8 platforms. For these
products, refer to
“Broadcast, unknown unicast, and multicast storm control” on page 452.
Creating a receive queue multicast rate-limit
To create the receive queue multicast rate-limit, perform the following steps.
1. Issue the <edit-config> RPC to configure the <qos> node in the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-qos namespace.
2. Under the <qos> node, include the <rcv-queue>/<multicast>/<rate-limit> hierarchy of node
elements.
3. Under the <rate-limit> node, include the <limit> leaf node and set its value to the rate limit in
packets per second.
4. Issue the <bna-config-cmd> RPC to save the running-config file to the startup-config file.
The following example sets the multicast rate limit to 10000 packets per second.
