[e-nsp] storm control ?

 Hi Marcin

You could try rate limit on port:

configure ports <port_list> rate-limit flood [broadcast | multicast | unknown-destmac] [no-limit | <pps>]

Objet : [e-nsp] storm control ?

hello,

I have seen in Cisco switches such an option like Broadcast storm control.
It was possible to set up a limit of broadcasts (not sure if per port or per vlan) and if this trashold had been reached, port goes to disabled mode for configured period of time.

I suppose that broadcasts per second are counted on port (not on every vlan).

Is there anything similar to this in EXOS ?


What I need is that I have a customer on a port with i.e. 5 vlans providing different services to the customer.
If customer generates a loop, the port should go down.

I know about ELRP, but it is not what I need. I just don't want to care about each and every vlan - just about port.

Maybe just edge bpdu-restrict mode ? But is it working with ports with more vlans ? How about if customer sends me BPDUs that I want to ignore ?

So, if you have any idea for broadcast storm control per port - I'll appreciate.

Regards,
Marcin
