428 Ethernet Configuration Commands
User Guidelines
When auto is used with a set of speeds, only those speeds are used by the port
for the negotiation capabilities. Alternatively, if no speed arguments are
configured, then all the speed capabilities are considered. SFP transceivers
support auto-negotiation mode only.
Example
The following example configures the speed operation of Ethernet port 1/0/5
to force 100-Mbps operation.
console(config)#interface gigabitethernet 1/0/5
console(config-if)#speed 100
storm-control broadcast
Use the storm-control broadcast command in Interface Configuration mode
to enable broadcast storm recovery mode for a specific interface. If the mode
is enabled, broadcast storm recovery is active, and if the rate of L2 broadcast
traffic ingressing on an interface increases beyond the configured threshold,
the traffic will be dropped. Therefore, the rate of broadcast traffic will be
limited to the configured threshold.
