Parameter Description
Frame Type: Specifies broadcast, multicast or unknown unicast traffic.
Status: Enables or Disables Storm Control.
Rate (pps): The threshold above which packets are dropped. This limit can be set by
specifying a value in pps, or by selecting one of the options in Kpps (i.e.,
marked with the suffix "K").
Options: n pps where n = 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512; or 1, 2, 4, 8, 16,
32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024 Kpps;
Default: 2 pps
Due to an ASIC limitation, the enforced rate limits are slightly less than the
listed options. For example: 1 Kpps translates into an enforced threshold of
1002.1 pps.
