Description: Cisco UCS ether:RxStats:broadcastPackets managed object property

What is cucsEtherRxStatsBroadcastPackets?

This is broadcastPackets, an Unsigned64 cumulative count of broadcast packets received on this specific interface. An unusually high or rapidly climbing count on this one port can indicate a broadcast storm or a misbehaving device flooding the segment reached through this exact port, distinguishing it from normal background ARP and discovery chatter. For example, broadcastPackets jumping from a steady few thousand per hour to hundreds of thousands within minutes on this one uplink is a classic broadcast-storm symptom localized to that specific link.

Examples
