2.5.6 Broadcast Storm Control

With the broadcast storm control function enabled, if the
broadcast traffic exceeds the predefined limit, the system will
drop broadcast packets beyond the limit until the ratio of
broadcast packets comes down to a reasonable value. In this
way, broadcast storms can be effectively controlled and
network congestion can be avoided, thus ensuring the smooth
operation of the network.
