Chapter 7 Configure Switch Features
Configure Port Thresholds via the Logix Designer Application
You can configure threshold limits for broadcast, unicast, and multicast traffic
for each active port. This feature is available only with Full firmware. The
number of packets being sent is compared against the threshold value. These
limits help to prevent a single device from sending too much traffic.

Table 81 - Port Threshold Fields for Stratix 5400, Stratix 5410, Stratix 5700, and ArmorStratix 5700 Switches
Field Description
Port The port selected for configuration. The port number includes the port type (Fa for Fast Ethernet and Gi for Gigabit Ethernet),
and the specific port number.
EXAMPLE: Gi1/1 is Gigabit Ethernet port 1.
Incoming Threshold Settings Enable incoming thresholds and set the threshold values for the unicast, multicast, and broadcast traffic for each port.
Valid values for units:
• Packets per second (pps)
• Percentage of total bandwidth (%)
• Bits per second (bps)
Outgoing Threshold Settings Enable outgoing thresholds and set the threshold values for the traffic for each port.
Units % = Percentage of total bandwidth
