Description: The switch config broadcast allows you to enable or disable broadcast storm recovery mode. When you specify Enable for Broadcast Storm Recovery and the broadcast traffic on any Ethernet port exceeds 20 percent of the link speed, the switch blocks (discards) the broadcast traffic until the broadcast traffic returns to 10 percent or less.Upper limit for 10M link is 20% and lower limit is 10%. For 100M link Upper limit is 5% and lower limit is 2%

What is agentSwitchBroadcastControlMode?

This read-write enumeration enables broadcast storm recovery (enable=1, disable=2). Enable(1) blocks broadcast traffic exceeding 20% link usage. Disable(2) for loop-free networks. Enable(1) protects against layer-2 storms.
