Command Usage
◆ Automatic storm control can be enabled for either broadcast or multicast
traffic. It cannot be enabled for both of these traffic types at the same time.
◆ Automatic storm control is a software level control function. Traffic storms can
also be controlled at the hardware level using the switchport packet-rate
command. However, only one of these control types can be applied to a port.
Enabling automatic storm control on a port will disable hardware-level storm
control on that port.
