number: Maximum number of links that can be used for transmitting multicast or broadcast packets, in
the range of 0 to 128. The value 0 indicates that the transmission of multicast or broadcast packets is not

Usage guidelines
For a VT interface containing multiple links, the system performance might decrease if all the links of the
VT interface are engaged in multicast or broadcast packet transmission. You can use the broadcast-limit
link command to limit the number of links that are capable of multicast or broadcast packet transmission.
Examples
# Set the maximum number of links that are capable of multicast or broadcast packets transmission to
100 for interface VT 1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface Virtual-Template 1
[Sysname-Virtual-Template1] broadcast-limit link 100
default
Use default to restore the default setting for the VT or MP-group interface.
