Configuring Storm Control and Threshold Levels
Command Purpose
1. configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
2. interface interface-id Specifies the interface to be configured, and enters interface configuration
mode.
3. storm-control {broadcast |
multicast | unicast} level {level
[level-low] | bps bps [bps-low] | pps
pps [pps-low]}
Configures broadcast, multicast, or unicast storm control. By default, storm
control is disabled.
level—Specifies the rising threshold level for broadcast, multicast, or
unicast traffic as a percentage (up to two decimal places) of the
bandwidth. The port blocks traffic when the rising threshold is reached.
The range is 0.00 to 100.00.
(Optional) level-low—Specifies the falling threshold level as a
percentage (up to two decimal places) of the bandwidth. This value
must be less than or equal to the rising suppression value. The port
forwards traffic when traffic drops below this level. If you do not
configure a falling suppression level, it is set to the rising suppression
level. The range is 0.00 to 100.00.
If you set the threshold to the maximum value (100 percent), no limit is
placed on the traffic. If you set the threshold to 0.0, all broadcast,
multicast, and unicast traffic on that port is blocked.
bps bps—Specifies the rising threshold level for broadcast, multicast, or
unicast traffic in bits per second (up to one decimal place). The port
blocks traffic when the rising threshold is reached. The range is 0.0 to
10000000000.0.
(Optional) bps-low—Specifies the falling threshold level in bits per
second (up to one decimal place). It can be less than or equal to the
rising threshold level. The port forwards traffic when traffic drops below
this level. The range is 0.0 to 10000000000.0.
