   −
QoS bandwidth management allows you to control traffic flows on a network so that traffic does not exceed network capacity (resulting in network congestion) and also allows you to allocate bandwidth for certain types of traffic and for applications and users.
+
In networking, Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms like bandwidth control and storm control are used to manage and control the flow of traffic on a network. They help ensure that critical traffic receives priority and that network resources are used efficiently.

Rate limiting is a specific form of bandwidth control that restricts the rate at which data can be sent or received. It is used to prevent certain traffic flows from exceeding a predefined rate. Rate limiting can be applied to both inbound and outbound traffic. It is commonly used to control traffic such as email, file transfers, or streaming to ensure that it does not consume excessive network resources.

Storm control is a feature used to prevent broadcast, multicast, or unknown unicast "storms" from overloading a network. These storms can occur when a network device generates a high volume of these types of traffic, leading to congestion and network performance issues. Storm control mechanisms can include broadcast storm control, multicast storm control, and unknown unicast storm control.
