Description
Bind a storm control profile to a given interface.
On switches running ELS software, storm control is enabled by default on all switch interfaces at a level of 80 percent of the combined broadcast and unknown unicast streams. (For the equivalent statement for platforms running non-ELS software, see storm-control.)
If you configure storm control on an aggregated Ethernet interface, the storm-control level is applies to each member interface individually. For example, if the aggregated interface has two members and you configure a storm-control level of 20 kbps, Junos will not detect a storm if one or both of the member interfaces receives traffic at 15 kbps because in neither of these cases does an individual member receive traffic at a rate greater than the configured storm-control level. In this example, Junos detects a storm only if at least one member interface receives traffic at greater than 20 Kbps.
