Usage Guidelines

When there are many links on the VT interface, sending multicast or broadcast packets from each link may influence the system performance. In this case, use the broadcast-limit link command to set a limit for the number of links. The multicast or broadcast packet is discarded if the link exceeds the limit.

Example

# Set the maximum of links for sending multicast or broadcast packets supported by VT interface 1 to 100.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] interface virtual-template 1
[sysname-Virtual-Template1] broadcast-limit link 100
