I try to get the majority of the foam out by swinging the carboy, but i know the foam is good for the beer. Just let it be.
As a follow-on question about StarSan, how bad is it if 1.5 cups of diluted StarSan made it into my 6 gallon primary? Is this a dump and re-start or???
My first batch of homebrew ever, long story about how this happened, but appreciate any advice.

Three batches ago I accidentally siphoned at least a pint or two of diluted StarSan into my primary. Best pale ale I've made. It won't be a problem.
Bet that gave you angina for a few days before you got to try it ;-)
Thank god I'm on beta blockers... (not really)
Nah, in seriousness, I was so pissed off by everything that had gone wrong with the brew already I had given up on the batch and was beyond caring. The full description of that day can be found here, for your entertainment.

The words "Glass Grenade" come to mind.
