Storm Protection
In general, one host should not be allowed to occupy unlimited bandwidth, particularly when the
device malfunctions. For example, so-called “broadcast storms” could be caused by an incorrectly
configured topology or a malfunctioning device. TheAWK-5222 not only prevents broadcast
storms, but can also be configured to a different ingress rate for all packets, giving administrators
full control of their limited bandwidth to prevent undesirable effects caused by unpredictable
faults.
Setting Description Factory Default

Storm Protection for multicast packet
globally
Enable/Disable

Storm Protection for unknown
multicast and unknown unicast
