config traffic control
and the port is still experiencing packet storms, the port will
be placed in shutdown forever mode and can only be
manually recovered using the config traffic control_recover
command.
time_interval
- The Interval will set the time between Multicast and
Broadcast packet counts sent from the Switch’s chip to the Traffic
Control function. These packet counts are the determining factor
in deciding when incoming packets exceed the Threshold value.
•
value 5-10
- The Interval may be set between 5 and 10
seconds with the default setting of 5 seconds.
Restrictions Only
administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To configure traffic control and enable broadcast storm control system wide:
DES-6500:4# config traffic control 1:1-1:12 broadcast enable action
shutdown threshold 1 countdown 10 time_interval 10
Command: config traffic control 1:1-1:12 broadcast enable action
shutdown threshold 1 countdown 10 time_interval 10
Success.
DES-6500:4#
config traffic control_recover
Purpose
Used to manually recover ports from a shutdown forever state.
Syntax
config traffic control_recover [<portlist> | all]
Description
This command is used to manually recover ports that have placed
in a shutdown forever state due to packet storms occurring on the
port. Once a port has been placed in a shutdown forever state,
this is the only available method to recover these disabled ports.
Parameters
<portlist>
−
Used to specify ports to manually recover form a
shutdown forever state. This is specified by listing the lowest
switch number and the beginning port number on that switch,
separated by a colon. Then the highest switch number, and the
highest port number of the range (also separated by a colon) are
specified. The beginning and end of the port list range are
separated by a dash. For example, 1:3 specifies switch number 1,
port 3. 2:4 specifies switch number 2, port 4. 1:3-2:4 specifies all
of the ports between switch 1, port 3 and switch 2, port 4
−
in
numerical order.
Restrictions Only
administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To manually recover ports 1-5 on module 1.
