Percentage option is only supported on specific modules and affects the
whole module. Even though you set it for a port when do sh port broadcast it
will be set for every port on a module. If want to set it to a port use
packets per second. If given average packet size and your port is 10 or 100
Mbps figure out how many packets is 100% and then take 20% out of that
number.

                Same command but use pps instead of percentage

                My scenario is that I want to limit broadcasts on a
                port on the Catalyst. Assume I don't want broadcast
                to consume any more than 20%. I know I can do a:

                set port broadcast 2/1 20%

                But what if I'm given an average size of the ethernet
                packet. Assume 750 bytes. How would I figure this
                out?
