I know it love it and use it, but alas, only on physical interfaces...
the ports in the vlan should get full speed broadcast - the faster the
better, it's a commodities pricing network!
but the svi should get almost no ip broadcast traffic either for all ones
or the directed broadcast... I may just have to filter it using an acl, if
there is no qos solution to protect the control plane...
I wonder if filtering it with an acl would be lower cpu than just letting it
come in and kill the box...

Would storm control be a possible solution ?
