To configure storm control
The storm control settings allow you to specify thresholds for broadcast or multicast traffic that
will activate storm control. When the threshold is exceeded, the switch drops the broadcast or
multicast traffic. When the traffic level drops below the threshold, the switch resumes forwarding
the traffic again.
1. From the Main Menu, select
Forwarding | Broadcast/Multicast Storm Control and press
Enter.
2. Configure these fields for each port group.
3. Highlight
APPLY and press Enter.
To configure advanced traffic control
Advance traffic control sets the threshold for the amount of traffic a port can handle before
triggering flow control. You must enable flow control on the ports before you can set a flow control
threshold. (See the
Port Configurations option on the Main Menu.)
1. From the Main Menu, select
Forwarding | Advance Traffic Control and press Enter.
2. Toggle the View Ports field to the group of ports you want to configure.
3. In the field, enter a port or a range of ports to configure. To configure a single port, enter that
port number in both the To and From field.
