The command "show port storm-control" shuld give you some info.

You can also use the "trap" option to generate SNMP traps,

but only for broadcast traffic.

Another thing, try reading the release notes for the version that

you are using. There might be some open caveats that has an impact

on your configurations.

Hope this helps.
