Information About Protocol Storm Protection
Protocol Storm Protection
When a switch is flooded with Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) or control packets, high CPU utilization
can cause the CPU to overload. These issues can occur:
• Routing protocol can flap because the protocol control packets are not received, and neighboring
• Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) reconverges because the STP bridge protocol data unit (BPDU) cannot
• CLI is slow or unresponsive.
Using protocol storm protection, you can control the rate at which control packets are sent to the switch by
specifying the upper threshold for the packet flow rate. The supported protocols are ARP, ARP snooping,
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) v4, DHCP snooping, Internet Group Management Protocol
(IGMP), and IGMP snooping.
