Description
Configure a storm control profile on a switch or router. Storm control is used to prevent network outages that are caused by broadcast traffic storms. Storm control enables the switching device to monitor traffic levels and to drop broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast packets when a specified traffic level—called the storm control level or storm control bandwidth—is exceeded, thus preventing packets from proliferating and degrading the LAN.
The name of the storm control profile can contain no more than 127 characters.
The remaining statements are explained separately. See CLI Explorer.
