Command Usage
• When broadcast traffic exceeds the specified threshold, packets above that threshold are dropped.
• The scale and level are multiplied by one another to set the broadcast threshold. For example, to set a threshold of
500 Kbytes per second, choose 100K for the scale and 5 for the level.
• The specified threshold value applies to all ports on the switch.
