STORM CONTROL SETTING
Broadcast storms may occur when a device on your network is
malfunctioning, or if application programs are not well designed or properly
configured. If there is too much broadcast traffic on your network,
performance can be severely degraded or everything can come to complete
halt.
You can protect your network from broadcast storms by setting a threshold
for broadcast traffic. Any broadcast packets exceeding the specified
threshold will then be dropped.
You can also protect your network from excess multicast or unknown
multicast/unicast traffic traffic by setting thresholds for each port. Any
packets exceeding the specified threshold will then be dropped.
