storm-control broadcast

Use the storm-control broadcast command in Interface Configuration mode
to enable broadcast storm recovery mode for a specific interface. If the mode
is enabled, broadcast storm recovery is active, and if the rate of L2 broadcast
traffic ingressing on an interface increases beyond the configured threshold,
the traffic will be dropped. Therefore, the rate of broadcast traffic will be
limited to the configured threshold.
