{group_list <storm_grouplist>}
Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
config traffic control
Purpose
Used to configure broadcast/multicast traffic control.
Syntax
config traffic control [<storm_grouplist> | all] broadcast [enable
| disable] | multicast [enable | disable] | dlf [enable | disable] |
threshold <value 0-255>
Description
This command is used to configure broadcast storm control.
Parameters

multicast [enable | disable]
−
Enables or disables multicast storm
control.
dlf [enable | disable]
−
Enables or disables dlf traffic control.
threshold <value 0-255>
−
The upper threshold at which the
specified traffic control is switched on. The
<value>
is the number of
broadcast/multicast/dlf packets, in Kbps, received by the Switch that
will trigger the storm traffic control measures.
Restrictions Only
