4.4.14.6 Storm Control
Select the option
Storm Control
from the
Security Configuration
menu to set up storm
control parameters for ports and then the following screen page appears.
When a device on the network is malfunctioning or application programs are not well
designed or properly configured, broadcast storms may occur, which eventually degrades
network performance and even worse cause a complete halt. The network can be protected
from broadcast storms by setting a threshold for broadcast traffic for each port. Any
broadcast packet exceeding the specified threshold will then be dropped (see Anti-
broadcast Configuration).
Three options of frame traffic are provided to allow users to enable or disable the storm
control.
Unknown Unicast Rate:
Enable or disable unknown Unicast traffic control and set up
unknown Unicast Rate packet per second (pps).
Multicast Rate:
Enable or disable Multicast traffic control and set up Multicast Rate packet
per second (pps).
Broadcast Rate:
Enable or disable Broadcast traffic control and set up broadcast Rate
packet per second (pps).
