 Enable Rate Limit: Click the check box and the rate to enable storm control.
 Rate (number of frames per second): The Rate field is set by a single drop-down list. The
same threshold is applied to every port on the switch. When the threshold is exceeded,
packets are dropped, regardless of the flow-control settings.
 ICMP Rate: This can keep you from continuously pinging the switch and wasting the CPU
resource.
 Learn Frame Rate: By default, the switch performs wire-speed learning on all ports.
However, if some kind of unknown source MAC is classified as a "learn frame," it is
redirected to the CPU. These packets will be filtered after enabling this command.
 Broadcast: Broadcast traffic.
 Multicast: Unknown Multicast Traffic. Before IGMP Snooping is enabled, all the multicast is
flooded and will be filtered by this command.
 Flooded Unicast Rate: Any source MAC not yet recognized by the switch is considered
unknown unicast. This command can help limit such traffic.
