For an S5810 series Ethernet switch, the configuration of auto power down does not take effect on
GigabitEthernet 1/0/45 through GigabitEthernet 1/0/48.
Configuring a Port Group
The devices allow you to configure some functions on multiple interfaces at a time by assigning the
interfaces to a port group in addition to configuring them on a per-interface basis. This is helpful when
you have to configure a feature in the same way on multiple interfaces.
A port group is created manually and the settings you made on it apply to all group member interfaces.
Note that even though the settings are made on the port group, they are saved on an interface basis
rather than on a port group basis. Thus, you can only view the settings in the view of each interface with
the
display current-configuration
command or the
display this
command.
Follow these steps to configure a manual port group:

Configuring Storm Suppression
You can use the storm suppression function to limit the size of a particular type of traffic (currently
broadcast, multicast and unknown unicast traffic) on a per-interface basis in Ethernet interface view or
port group view.
In interface or port group view, you set the maximum broadcast, multicast or unknown unicast traffic
allowed to pass through an interface or each interface in a port group. When the broadcast, multicast, or
unknown unicast traffic on the interface exceeds the threshold, the system discards packets until the
traffic drops below the threshold.
The storm suppression ratio settings configured for an Ethernet interface may become invalid if you
enable the storm constrain for the interface. For information about the storm constrain function, see
Configuring the Storm Constrain Function on an Ethernet Interface
.
Follow these steps to set storm suppression ratios for one or multiple Ethernet interfaces:
