Ethernet Configuration Commands 169
storm-control broadcast
Use the storm-control broadcast command in Interface Configuration mode to enable broadcast
storm recovery mode for a specific interface. If the mode is enabled, broadcast storm recovery is
active, and if the rate of L2 broadcast traffic ingressing on an interface increases beyond the
configured threshold, the traffic will be dropped. Therefore, the rate of broadcast traffic will be
limited to the configured threshold.
Syntax
storm-control broadcast [level rate]
no storm-control broadcast
• rate—Percentage of port bandwidth to allow. (Range: 0-100)
Default Configuration
The default value is 5.

storm-control multicast
Use the storm-control multicast command in Interface Configuration mode to enable multicast
storm recovery mode for an interface. If the mode is enabled, multicast storm recovery is active,
and if the rate of L2 multicast traffic ingressing on an interface increases beyond the configured
threshold, the traffic will be dropped. Therefore, the rate of multicast traffic will be limited to the
configured threshold.
Syntax
storm-control multicast [level rate]
no storm-control multicast
• rate—Maximum packets per second of multicast traffic on a port. (Range: 0-100)
Default Configuration
