Access Layer Switch Storm Control

Storm control enables the switch to monitor traffic levels and to drop broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast packets when a specified traffic level—called the storm control level —is exceeded, thus preventing packets from proliferating and degrading the LAN. This, in turn, prompts further responses, creating a snowball effect. This helps in avoiding packet floods that might consume excessive bandwidth and disrupt network communication. Traffic storm control.
