Stephen,
thanks for your reply, but in the meanwhile I have understood (thanks to
Brian) that "unicast storm-control" does not look at unicast frames with
unknown destination address (as I initially thought), but just at *any*
unicast frame, which is not I want to do.
So I'm giving up trying to use this feature (which IMHO is not very
interesting).
Thanks again,
Vincent
