QoS / Storm Control Configuration
Storm control for the switch is configured on this page.
There is a unicast storm rate control, multicast storm rate control, and a broadcast storm rate
control. These only affect flooded frames, i.e. frames with a (VLAN ID, DMAC) pair not
present on the MAC Address table.
The configuration indicates the permitted packet rate for unicast, multicast or broadcast
traffic across the switch.
Note:
Frames, which are sent to the CPU of the switch are always limited to approximately 4
kpps. For example, broadcasts in the management VLAN are limited to this rate. The
management VLAN is configured on the IP setup page.
