ProSafe Managed Switch maintains the configured "level" (to be active the next time that form of storm-control is enabled.) Note: The actual rate of ingress traffic required to activate storm-control is based on the size of incoming packets and the hard-coded average packet size of 512 bytes - used to calculate a packet-per-second (pps) rate - as the forwarding-plane requires pps versus an absolute rate kbps. For example, if the configured limit is 10%, this is converted to ~25000 pps, and this pps limit is set in forwarding plane (hardware). You get the approximate desired output when 512bytes packets are used. storm-control broadcast Use this command to enable broadcast storm recovery mode for a specific interface. If the mode is enabled, broadcast storm recovery is active and, if the rate of L2 broadcast traffic ingressing on an interface increases beyond the configured threshold, the traffic will be dropped. Therefore, the rate of broadcast traffic will be limited to the configured threshold. Default Format Mode enabled storm-control broadcast Interface Config no storm-control broadcast Use this command to disable broadcast storm recovery mode for a specific interface. Format Mode no storm-control broadcast Interface Config storm-control broadcast level Use this command to configure the broadcast storm recovery threshold for an interface as a percentage of link speed and enable broadcast storm recovery. If the mode is enabled, broadcast storm recovery is active, and if the rate of L2 broadcast traffic ingressing on an interface increases beyond the configured threshold, the traffic is dropped. Therefore, the rate of broadcast traffic is limited to the configured threshold. Default Format Mode 5 storm-control broadcast level Interface Config Switching Commands 113
