Configuring QoS Bandwidth Control Configuration
UL-Frame 
Threshold (0-
1,000,000)
Specify the upper rate limit for receiving unknown unicast frames. The valid 
values differ among different rate modes. The value 0 means the unknown unicast 
threshold  is disabled. The traffic exceeding the limit will be processed according 
to the Action configurations.
Action Select the action that the switch will take when the traffic exceeds its 
corresponding limit.
Drop: Set the Action as Drop. The port will drop the subsequent packets when the 
traffic exceeds the limit.
Shutdown: Set the Action as Shutdown. The port will be shutdown when the 
traffic exceeds the limit.
Recover Time Specify the recover time for the port. It takes effect only when the action is set 
as shutdown. The valid values are from 0 to 3600 seconds. When the port is 
shutdown, it can recover to its normal state after the recover time passed. If the 
recover time is specified as 0, which means the port will not recover to its normal 
state automatically and you can recover the port manually.
2)  Click Apply.
Note:
For ports in the same LAG, rate limit / storm control should be set to the same value to ensure a 
successful port aggregation.
3.2  Using the CLI
3.2.1  Configuring Rate Limit
Follow these steps to configure the upper rate limit for the port to receive and send 
packets:
Step 1 configure
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 interface {fastEthernet 
port
 | range fastEthernet 
port-list
 | gigabitEthernet 
port
 | range 
gigabitEthernet 
port-list
 | ten-gigabitEthernet 
port
 | range ten-gigabitEthernet 
port-list
 | port-
channel 
port-channel-id
 | range port-channel 
port-channel-list
}
Enter interface configuration mode.
Step 3 bandwidth {ingress 
ingress-rate
 | egress 
egress-rate
}
Configure the upper rate limit for the port to receive and send packets.
ingress-rate:
 Configure the upper rate limit for receiving packets on the port. The valid values 
are from 0 to 1000000 Kbps.
egress-rate:
 Configure the upper rate limit for sending packets on the port. The valid values are 
from 0 to 1000000 Kbps.
