6.5 Storm Control
Understanding Storm Control
Storm control prevents traffic on a LAN from being disrupted by a broadcast, multicast, or unicast
storm on a port. A LAN storm occurs when packets flood the LAN, creating excessive traffic and
degrading network performance. Errors in the protocol-stack implementation, mistakes in network
configuration, or users issuing a denial-of-service attack can cause a storm.
Storm control is configured for the switch as a whole but operates on a per-port basis. By default,
storm control is disabled.
Storm control uses rising and falling thresholds to block and then restore the forwarding of broadcast,
unicast, or multicast packets. You can also set the switch to shut down the port when the rising
threshold is reached.
The thresholds can either be expressed as a percentage of the total available bandwidth that can be
used by the broadcast, multicast, or unicast traffic, or as the rate at which the interface receives
multicast, broadcast, or unicast traffic.
When a switch uses the bandwidth-based method, the rising threshold is the percentage of total
available bandwidth associated with multicast, broadcast, or unicast traffic before forwarding is
