storm-control unknown-unicast (Configuration)
c e s z

Syntax
storm-control unknown-unicast [percentage decimal_value [in | out]] | [wred-profile
name]] [packets_per_second in]
To disable storm control for unknown-unicast traffic, use the no storm-control unknown-unicast
[percentage decimal_value [in | out] | [wred-profile name]] [packets_per_second in] command.
Parameters
packets_per_second in

allowed into the network.
C-Series and S-Series Range: 0 to 33554431
S4810 Range: 0 to 33554368
The minimum number of PPS limited on the S4810 is 2

percentage
decimal_value [in |
out]
E-Series Only: Enter the percentage of broadcast traffic allowed in or out of the
network. Optionally, you can designate a decimal value percentage, for
example, 55.5%.
