down entry field. The factory default is disabled.

config switchconfig broadcast
This command enables or disables broadcast storm recovery mode. If the mode is enabled,
broadcast storm recovery with high and low thresholds is implemented.
The threshold implementation follows a percentage pattern. If the broadcast traffic on any Ethernet
port exceeds the high threshold percentage (as represented in “Broadcast Storm Recovery
Thresholds” table) of the link speed, the switch discards the broadcasts traffic until the broadcast
traffic returns to the low threshold percentage or less. The full implementation is depicted in the
“Broadcast Storm Recovery Thresholds” table.
Format config switchconfig broadcast <enable/disable>

Note: This command only applies to full-duplex mode ports.
