Example of Configuring and Viewing Rate Policing
The following example shows configuring rate policing.
Dell#config t
Dell(conf)#interface tengigabitethernet 1/2
Dell(conf-if)#rate police 100 40 peak 150 50
Dell(conf-if)#end
Dell#
The following example shows viewing the rate policing status.
Dell#show interfaces tengigabitEthernet 1/2 rate police
Rate police 300 (50) peak 800 (50)
Traffic Monitor 0: normal 300 (50) peak 800 (50)
Out of profile yellow 23386960 red 320605113

Traffic Monitor 2: normal NA peak NA
Out of profile yellow 0 red 0
Traffic Monitor 3: normal NA peak NA
Out of profile yellow 0 red 0
Traffic Monitor 4: normal NA peak NA
Out of profile yellow 0 red 0
Configuring Port-Based Rate Shaping
Rate shaping buffers, rather than drops, traffic exceeding the specified rate until the buffer is exhausted. If
any stream exceeds the configured bandwidth on a continuous basis, it can consume all of the buffer
space that is allocated to the port.
• Apply rate shaping to outgoing traffic on a port.

• Apply rate shaping to a queue.
