Example 
Enable the broadcast control function for port 5:   
TL-SL2428(config)# interface fastEthernet 1/0/5 
TL-SL2428(config-if)# storm-control broadcast

Description 
The storm-control multicast command is used to enable the multicast control 
function. To disable the multicast control function, please use no storm-control 
multicast  command. Multicast control function allows the switch to filter

exceeds the set bandwidth, the packets will be automatically discarded to avoid
