Configuring Broadcast Suppression

Purpose

To review and set the broadcast suppression threshold for one or more ports. This feature limits 
the number of received broadcast frames the switch will accept per port. Broadcast suppression 
thresholds apply only to broadcast traffic—multicast traffic is not affected. By default, a broadcast 
suppression threshold of 14881 packets per second (pps) will be used, regardless of actual port 
speed. Broadcast suppression protects against broadcast storms and ARP sweeps.

Commands

Clears all options and statistics, or clears only statistics.

parameter

threshold | interval | 
downtime | all

port‐string

(Optional unless parameter is specified) Specifies the port(s) on which 
to clear settings.
