Layer 2 Ethernet interface view, Layer 2 Ethernet subinterface view
Default command level
2: System level
Parameters
ratio: Sets the broadcast suppression threshold as a percentage of the maximum interface rate. The
smaller the percentage, the less broadcast traffic is allowed to be received. The value range for the ratio
argument is 1 to 100.
Usage guidelines
In Ethernet interface or subinterface view, the configuration takes effect only on the interface or
subinterface.
When the received broadcast traffic exceeds the broadcast suppression threshold, the interface discards
broadcast packets until broadcast traffic drops below the threshold.
If you set different broadcast suppression thresholds in Ethernet interface view multiple times, the most
recent configuration takes effect.
Examples
# Set the broadcast suppression threshold to 20% on GigabitEthernet 0/1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 0/1
[Sysname-GigabitEthernet0/1] broadcast-suppression 20
# Set the broadcast suppression threshold to 20% on subinterface GigabitEthernet 0/1.1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 0/1.1
[Sysname-GigabitEthernet0/1.1] broadcast-suppression 20
