set the rate limit on a port too low, you might, for example, see degraded video stream
quality, sluggish response times during online activity, and other problems.
You also can set port rate limits (the same feature) as part of the QoS configuration on
the switch (see Use port-based quality of service and set port priorities on page 24).
Note: If you set a port rate limit, the actual rate might fluctuate, depending on the type
of traffic that the port is processing.
To set rate limits for ingress and egress traffic on a port:
1.
Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
switch, or connected directly to the switch through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the device management password.
The password is the one that you specified the first time that you logged in. The
password is case-sensitive.
The HOME page displays.
The PORT STATUS pane displays on the right or the bottom of the HOME page,
depending on the size of your browser window.
A port that is in use shows as CONNECTED. A port that is not in use shows as
AVAILABLE.
4. Select the port.
The pane displays detailed information about the port.
5. Select the port.
The pane displays port settings.
6. From the Ingress Rate Limit menu, Egress Rate Limit menu, or both, select the rate
in Kbps or Mbps.
The default selection is No Limit.
7. Click the APPLY button.
Your settings are saved.
Manage flow control for a port
IEEE 802.3x flow control works by pausing a port if the port becomes oversubscribed
(that is, the port receives more traffic than it can process) and dropping all traffic for
small bursts of time during the congestion condition.
