Configuring a Broadcast Limit on the Switch

Broadcast-Limit on switches covered in this guide is configured on a per-port
basis. You must be at the port context level for this command to work, for
example:

ProCurve(config)#int B1

ProCurve(int B1)# broadcast-limit 1

Broadcast-Limit.

Syntax: broadcast-limit <0-99>

Enables or disables broadcast limiting for outbound
broadcasts on a selected port on the switch. The value selected
is the percentage of traffic allowed, for example,

broadcast-limit

5 allows 5% of the maximum amount of traffic for that port. A
value of zero disables broadcast limiting for that port.

Note: You must switch to port context level before issuing the
broadcast-limit command.
Note: This feature is not appropriate for networks requiring
high levels of IPX or RIP broadcast traffic.
