Usage Guideline
Only physical port interfaces are valid for this command.
Enter the "storm-control" command to enable Storm Control for a specific traffic
type on the interface.
All packets are passed in default without storm control enabled. After enabling
traffic storm control, if the storm-control action is to drop, then packets exceeding
the level will be dropped. If the storm-control action is set to shutdown, then the
interface will be shutdown whenever the packets exceed the threshold.
