The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the Password field.
The default password is password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Security > Traffic Control > Storm Control.
6. Select one or more ports by taking one of the following actions:
• To configure a single port, select the check box associated with the port, or type the
port number in the Go To Interface field and click the Go button.
• To configure multiple ports with the same settings, select the check box associated
with each port.
• To configure all ports with the same settings, select the check box in the heading row.
7. From the Status menus in the Unknown Unicast, Multicast, and Broadcast columns, select
whether storm control is enabled or disabled. By default, storm control is disabled.
If the rate of incoming unknown Layer 2 unicast traffic (that is, traffic for which a
destination lookup failure occurs) increases beyond the configured threshold on the port,
the traffic is dropped.
8. If the selection from a Status menu for a port is Enable, in the associated Threshold field,
specify the maximum rate at which unknown unicast, multicast, or broadcast packets are
forwarded.
The range is a percent of the total threshold between 0 and 100%. The default is 5%.
Storm control is configured as a percentage of the maximum port speed.
9. Click the Apply button.
The updated configuration is sent to the switch. Configuration changes take effect
immediately.
