Need help to control broadcast
Hi,
I am using Dell Powerconnect 5324, I want to configure my switch to control the broadcast, When I tried to check broadcast on default settings at port g1 its controlling the broadcast but it's downing all port instead of g1 only, and sometimes it goes to hang. Can you guys help me out to control the broadcast and down the same port only when the port is facing the broadcast suspend or down both can help me but it should not shut the whole switch ports.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi,
Thanks for your response i have attached my screen when i am using the show-logging command, We have Local area where we are currently using the cisco manageable switches sometime the peoples who don't want to keep the link up they try to do broadcast by extension switches and the cisco switches helps us to control the broadcast and only downs the port which is facing the broadcast so we can understand that from which switch we are getting the broadcast storm but now we want to use this dell powerconnect 5324 which is better and helpful mostly peoples recommended this to us but we are new to it and beginners its working well but we don't have any idea how to control the broadcast on the ports as we want it should down or suspend the only port where it has the broadcast. We can share our screen remotely for you if you can help we have large local area where we have almost 20 switches of cisco if you can configure only one and let us know we will use the powerconnect only.
Thanks,
