Broadcast Storm Control

[scrimmy]

Hi guy's

I'm looking into applying Broadcast storm control on the Cisco switches within our network.

the commands I'm thinking of applying are:

errdisable recovery cause storm-control
errdisable recovery interval 180

interface xx/xx
storm-control broadcast level 20.00
storm-control action shutdown
storm-control action trap


A few queries I could do with some advise on:
At which level in the network topology do these need applying (core, distributed, edge switches or all switches) ?
Do the interface commands need applying to all interfaces or just on the switch interconnecting links ?
The errdisable recovery commands - is it wise to apply the auto-recovery features ?

Thanks in advance

Lookup "BPDU-guard". It might be a better way to achieve your goal.
