Overview Use this command to specify the threshold level for broadcasting, multicast, or

Default By default, storm-control is disabled.
Mode Interface Configuration
Usage Flooding techniques are used to block the forwarding of unnecessary flooded
traffic. A packet storm occurs when a large number of broadcast packets are
received on a port. Forwarding these packets can cause the network to slow down
or time out.
Example To limit broadcast traffic on port1.0.2 to 30% of the maximum port speed, use
the following commands:
awplus#
awplus(config)#
awplus(config-if)#
