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.
