Step 4
End
Exits the configuration mode.
Step 5
show interfaces storm-control
Displays the interface Storm control
configuration.
Step 6
write startup-config
Optional step – saves this configuration
to be part of startup configuration.
The “no storm-control { broadcast |multicast | dlf } level” command disables Storm Control.
The example below shows the commands used to configure Storm Control.
SMIS# configure terminal
SMIS(config)# interface fx 0/22
SMIS(config-if)#storm-control broadcast level 50000
SMIS(config-if)# end
SMIS# show interfaces fx 0/22 storm-control
Fx0/22
DLF Storm Control : Disabled
Broadcast Storm Control : Enabled
Broadcast Storm Control : 50000
Multicast Storm Control : Disabled
2.3.8 Forward Error Correction (FEC) Mode
Supermicro switches allow users to enable FEC mode on the interfaces. FEC mode is useful in a noisy link
where errors in transmission require retransmissions.
Follow the steps below to enable FEC mode on the interface.

Step 2
interface <interface-type><interface-id>
or
interface range <interface-type><interface-id> ….
Enters the interface configuration
mode.
interface-type – may be any of the
following:
