Storm Control
This documentation explains storm control settings for MS switches, allowing users to mitigate network congestion caused by excessive broadcast, multicast, or unknown unicast traffic.
Storm control enables the switch to monitor traffic levels and to drop broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast packets when a specified traffic level—called the storm control level —is exceeded, thus preventing pac...

Storm control (or traffic suppression) monitors packets passing from an interface to the switching bus and determines if the packet is unicast, multicast, or broadcast.
Storm-Control is a feature on Cisco IOS Catalyst Switches that helps to block broadcast storms, multicast and unknown unicast traffic.

Configuring storm control involves accessing your Cisco switch and using specific commands to set thresholds for each traffic type you want to control. Follow these detailed steps to
Storm control (or traffic suppression) monitors packets passing from an interface to the switching bus and determines if the packet is unicast, multicast, or broadcast.
By default, storm control is disabled on a FortiSwitch unit. When enabled, it measures the data rate (in packets-per-second) for unknown unicast, unknown multicast, and broadcast traffic.
