Hi gangs,
I am somehow confused with the storm-control issues.
As you know when we configure the (storm-control unicast | broadcast |
multicast) on any specific port there must be an action occur if the
condition matched.
I read in cisco.com and other resources and still confused about the default
behaviour for the action!! it was mentioned clearly as the following:
7 By default, the port will filter the traffic & will not send a
trap ( I cant be sure what do they mean by filter ??? does it mean shut the
interface down or what??)
7 If storm-control action shut-down configured on the port--` will
error disable the port during the storm.
7 If storm-control action trap configured on the port -`will send
trap after storm detected.
My question here, is it enough to leave the default behaviour as it is to
bring the interfaced down in case of storm??? Or should I add the action
shut-down statement?? Or what is the difference??
Waiting for your comments.
Regards
