Configuring Storm Control Chapter 19 Configuring Traffic Control Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Step 7 Command Purpose storm-control {broadcast | multicast | unicast} level {rising_level [falling_level] | bps bps [bps-low] | pps pps [pps-low]} Configure broadcast, multicast, or unicast storm control. By default, storm control is disabled. The keywords have these meanings: • For rising_level, specify the rising threshold level for broadcast, multicast, or unicast traffic as a percentage (up to two decimal places) of the bandwidth. The port blocks traffic when the rising threshold is reached. The range is 0.00 to 100.00. • (Optional) For falling_level, specify the falling threshold level as a percentage (up to two decimal places) of the bandwidth. This value must be less than or equal to the rising suppression value. The port forwards traffic when traffic drops below this level. If you do not configure a falling suppression level, it is set to the rising suppression level. The range is 0.00 to 100.00. If you set the threshold to the maximum value (100 percent), no limit is placed on the traffic. If you set the threshold to 0.0, all broadcast, multicast, and unicast traffic on that port is blocked. • For bps bps, specify the rising threshold level for broadcast, multicast, or unicast traffic in bits per second (up to one decimal place). The port blocks traffic when the rising threshold is reached. The range is 0.0 to 10000000000.0. • (Optional) For bps-low, specify the falling threshold level in bits per second (up to one decimal place). It can be less than or equal to the rising threshold level. The port forwards traffic when traffic drops below this level. The range is 0.0 to 10000000000.0. • For pps pps, specify the rising threshold level for broadcast, multicast, or unicast traffic in packets per second (up to one decimal place). The port blocks traffic when the rising threshold is reached. The range is 0.0 to 10000000000.0. • (Optional) For pps-low, specify the falling threshold level in packets per second (up to one decimal place). It can be less than or equal to the rising threshold level. The port forwards traffic when traffic drops below this level. The range is 0.0 to 10000000000.0. For bps and pps settings, you can use metric suffixes such as k, m, and g for large number thresholds. storm-control action {shutdown | trap} Specify the action to be taken when a storm is detected. The default is to filter out the traffic and not to send traps. • Select the shutdown keyword to error-disable the port during a storm. • Select the trap keyword to generate an SNMP trap when a storm is detected. end Return to privileged EXEC mode. show storm-control [interface-id] [broadcast | multicast | unicast] Verify the storm control suppression levels set on the interface for the specified traffic type. If you do not enter a traffic type, broadcast storm control settings are displayed. copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file. 19-4 Cisco ME 3800X and 3600X Switch Software Configuration Guide OL-23400-01
