Local IP Address—Local IP address through which the switch is offering the
service.
Local Port—Local UDP port through which the switch is offering the service.

When Broadcast, Multicast, or Unknown Unicast frames are received, they are
duplicated, and a copy is sent to all possible egress ports. This means that in
practice they are sent to all ports belonging to the relevant VLAN. In this way, one
ingress frame is turned into many, creating the potential for a traffic storm.
Storm protection enables you to limit the number of frames entering the switch
and to define the types of frames that are counted towards this limit.
