Rate-limiting operates on a per-port basis, regardless of traffic priority. Rate-limiting is available on all types of ports (other than trunked ports) on the switches covered in this guide, and at all port speeds configurable for these devices.

Rate-limiting is not allowed on trunked ports: Rate-limiting is not supported on ports configured in a trunk group (including mesh ports). Configuring a port for rate-limiting and then adding it to a trunk suspends
