1-5For an S5810 series Ethernet switch, the configuration of auto power down does not take effect onGigabitEthernet 1/0/45 through GigabitEthernet 1/0/48.Configuring a Port GroupThe devices allow you to configure some functions on multiple interfaces at a time by assigning theinterfaces to a port group in addition to configuring them on a per-interface basis. This is helpful whenyou have to configure a feature in the same way on multiple interfaces.A port group is created manually and the settings you made on it apply to all group member interfaces.Note that even though the settings are made on the port group, they are saved on an interface basisrather than on a port group basis. Thus, you can only view the settings in the view of each interface withthe display current-configuration command or the display this command.Follow these steps to configure a manual port group:To do… Use the command… RemarksEnter system view system-view —Create a manual port group andenter manual port group viewport-group manualport-group-name RequiredAdd Ethernet interfaces to themanual port group group-member interface-list RequiredConfiguring Storm SuppressionYou can use the storm suppression function to limit the size of a particular type of traffic (currentlybroadcast, multicast and unknown unicast traffic) on a per-interface basis in Ethernet interface view orport group view.In interface or port group view, you set the maximum broadcast, multicast or unknown unicast trafficallowed to pass through an interface or each interface in a port group. When the broadcast, multicast, orunknown unicast traffic on the interface exceeds the threshold, the system discards packets until thetraffic drops below the threshold.The storm suppression ratio settings configured for an Ethernet interface may become invalid if youenable the storm constrain for the interface. For information about the storm constrain function, seeConfiguring the Storm Constrain Function on an Ethernet Interface.Follow these steps to set storm suppression ratios for one or multiple Ethernet interfaces:
