Configuring Broadcast Storm Control
Use the Broadcast Storm Filtering page to set the broadcast threshold.
Broadcast storms may occur when a device on your network is
malfunctioning, or if application programs are not well designed or
properly configured. If there is too much broadcast traffic on your
network, performance can be severely degraded or everything can come to
a complete halt.
You can protect your network from broadcast storms by setting a
maximum threshold for broadcast traffic. The percentage of a port’s total
bandwidth used by broadcast traffic. When broadcast traffic rises above
the specified threshold, broadcast packets exceeding that threshold will
then be dropped. (Range: NO, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25%; Default: NO)
