Hi Sadiq,
So if I will be asked to shut down the interface in-case of storm, I have
to defined the action shutdown???? But if it was asked to re-enable the link
in case of the storm released ??? How I will automate enable the
error-disabled port???
Waiting for your useful comments ;)

Hi Addicted,
If you read your posts carefully, you will find all the answers there within
actually :-)
See inline please:
7 By default, the port will filter the traffic & will not send a
trap ( I can t be sure what do they mean by filter ??? does it mean shut the
interface down or what??)
[SY] : If this is the default behaviour, why are you expecting anything
different to happen, with regards to your question at the end?
7 If storm-control action shut-down configured on the port--` will
error disable the port during the storm.
[SY] Yes!
7 If storm-control action trap configured on the port -`will send
trap after storm detected.
[SY] Yes
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??
If the default behaviour is not to shut down the interface or send traps.
The switch only silently drops the packets!
Anyways,
HTH
Sadiq
