swPktStormCtrlUnicastStatus
Module: PKT-STORM-CTRL-MIB
OID (symbolic): PKT-STORM-CTRL-MIB::swPktStormCtrlUnicastStatus
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.171.12.25.3.1.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: This object indicates whether the unicast (Destination Loopback Fail) storm control is enabled or disabled.
What is swPktStormCtrlUnicastStatus?
This object enables or disables unicast storm control, specifically for destination-lookup-failure unicast traffic, on this port. Administrators enable it to protect against a flood of unicast frames whose destination MAC address isn't in the forwarding table, which the switch would otherwise flood out all ports. For example, enabling this on a port suspected of generating excessive unknown-unicast traffic helps contain the resulting flooding impact on the rest of the switch.
