Configuring the Maximum Transmission Rate of an RSTP Port

Context

The more BPDUs sent from a port within an interval of the Hello timer, the more system resources consumed. Setting a proper transmission rate (packet-number) on a port prevents excess bandwidth usage when network flapping occurs.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run interface interface-type interface-number

    The view of the Ethernet interface that participates in spanning tree calculation is displayed.

  3. Run stp transmit-limit packet-number

    The maximum transmission rate of BPDUs (BPDUs per second) is set for the port.

    By default, a port sends a maximum of six BPDUs per second. To set the maximum transmission rate of BPDUs for all ports on a device, run the stp transmit-limit command in the system view.
