What is swPktStormCtrlMulticastStatus?

This object enables or disables multicast storm control on this port. Administrators enable it to protect against excessive multicast traffic overwhelming the port or downstream devices. For example, enabling this on a port connected to an IPTV or video conferencing endpoint helps contain a misbehaving multicast source before it floods the rest of the network.
