Chapter 5: Management
5.6 Traffic Prioritization
5.6.1 Storm Control
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 rate is 2^n, where n is equal to or less than 15, or "No Limit". The unit of the rate can be either pps (packets per second) or
kpps (kilopackets per second). The configuration indicates the permitted packet rate for unicast, multicast, or broadcast traffic
across the switch.
NOTE: Frames 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.
