[c-nsp] Storm control - find out which vlan hits the limit

Hi,

nobody an idea?
Tried Mini Protocol Analyzer but as far as I see I cannot combine with a
MAC address ACL.
In the meantime I got a server connected to the router and could export
the traffic via SPAN but still see no unusal broad-/multicast-spikes.

Can anybody confirm that the physical interface bandwidth is used for the
percentage calculation and not the current traffic?
I.e. 0.35% on a 10Gbit interface with 200MBit traffic will make storm
control drop everything above 35MBit (10000MBit*0.35%) and not 0.7MBit
(200MBit*0.35%), correct?

kind regards
Rolf
