7000 Series L3 Managed Switch Reference Manual for Software v2.0
Switching Commands 7-25
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.
