3.If you select the Simple Policy radio button, you can configure the following fields:

•Color Mode. Color aware mode requires the existence of one or more color classes that are valid for use with this policy instance; otherwise, the color mode is color blind, which is the default.

•Committed Rate. The committed rate is the average bandwidth in bits per seconds specified in kilobits-per-second (Kbps) and is an integer from 100 to 1000000.

•Committed Burst Size. The committed burst size is the maximum amount of traffic allowed in one burst (in bytes) and is an integer from 3000 to 19173960.

Note: The Token Bucket algorithm is used, in which the committed rate is the rate at which the bucket is filled, and the committed burst size is the size of the bucket. This means that the committed burst size is the maximum size of a burst that can be sent.

•Conform Action. Determines what happens to packets that are considered conforming (below the police rate). Select one of the following actions:

•Send. (Default) These packets are presented unmodified by DiffServ to the system forwarding element.

•Drop. These packets are immediately dropped.

•Mark CoS. These packets are marked by DiffServ with the specified CoS value before being presented to the system forwarding element. This selection requires that the Mark CoS value field be set.

•Mark IP DSCP. These packets are marked by DiffServ with the specified DSCP value before being presented to the system forwarding element. This selection requires that the DSCP value field be set. If you select Other, enter a custom value in the DSCP Value field that appears.

•Violate Action. Determines what happens to packets that are considered non-conforming (above the police rate). Select one of the following actions:

•Send. These packets are presented unmodified by DiffServ to the system forwarding element.

•Drop. These packets are immediately dropped.
