The following table describes the information displayed on the page.
Configure Storm Control
A broadcast storm is the result of an excessive number of broadcast messages
simultaneously transmitted across a network by a single port. Forwarded message
responses can overload network resources, cause the network to time out, or do both.
The switch measures the incoming packet rate per port for broadcast, multicast, unknown,
and unicast packets and discards packets if the rate exceeds the defined value. You can
enable storm control globally and per interface, by defining the packet type and the rate at
which the packets are transmitted.
