Broadcast Storm Control
12.1 Introducing Broadcast Storm Control
Broadcast storm control limits the number of broadcast, multicast and destination lookup failure (DLF) packets
the switch receives per second on the ports. When the maximum number of allowable broadcast, multicast and/or
DLF packets is reached per second, the subsequent packets are discarded. Enable this feature
to reduce broadcast,
multicast and/or DLF packets in your network. You can specify limits for each packet type on each port.
