Description | The maximum number of broadcast packets per
second allowed on this port. If the number of
incoming broadcast packets in a one second
interval exceeds this amount, packets are
dropped for the rest of the interval. If the
capability exists, only broadcast packets should
be dropped. Otherwise, all packets are dropped
during the suppression interval.
A value of 0 indicates broadcast packets should
not be limited.
The ability to suppress broadcast packets in this
manner exists only on certain ports. If it does
not exist on this port, attempts to write a value
other than 0 are rejected.
This object also applies to multicast (and/or)
unicast suppression when
filterPortSuppressionOption is enabled. |
