6.3.2 Configuring Storm Control
Storm control is available on SBx3100 devices. Storm control uses ingress and egress functionality to control broadcast,
known and unknown multicast, and unknown unicast traffic in the system. Using storm control, you can protect the quality of
service by limiting the percentage of inbound and outbound multi-destination traffic in the system. Storm control must be set
in profiles and cannot be modified on individual devices.
You set storm control rates on ingress interfaces as a percentage of the actual interface line speed. If the line speed changes,
the actual rate limit will change as a percentage of the new line speed. For example, on a 1G interface, a 1% limit is enforced
as 10M. If the interface auto-negotiates up at 100M , then the 1% limit is enforced as 1M.
