When the change is applied
The change is applied immediately after setting values are changed.
Notes
1. Storm control is controlled by the number of received frames. Frame length is
irrelevant.
2. When received frames exceed the storm detection threshold, control frames are also
discarded. To prevent necessary control frames from being discarded, do not specify
too small a value.
3. When the number of received frames exceeds the storm detection threshold set by
using
storm-control broadcast, storm-control multicast, or storm-control
unicast, the operation set for storm-control action is treated as detection of a
storm. If the number of received frames drops below the storm detection threshold
after a storm is detected, the Switch is considered to have recovered from the storm.
If a storm detection threshold has not been set, the operation set for
storm-control
action is not performed.
4. When
storm-control action inactivate is set, if a storm has been detected and
the port is deactivated, use the
activate operation command to activate the port. If
a storm is detected and a port is deactivated, no frames are received. In this state,
the end of the storm cannot be detected.
5. When using SNMP traps, you must use the
snmp-server host command to set the
destination IP address and
storm-control.
