Restrictions

This shaping rate must not exceed the maximum link data rate of

 

the interface to which the policy is applied.

Policy Type

Out

config diffserv policy shape peak

This command is used to establish peak rate traffic shaping for the specified class, which allows transmissions for the class to exceed the committed information rate by sending excess traffic with the understanding that it could be dropped by a downstream network element. The <policyname> and <classname> are the names of an existing DiffServ policy and class, respectively. Two rate parameters are used, a committed information rate and a peak information rate. Each of these rates is specified in kilobits-per-second (Kbps) and is an integer from 1 to 4294967295. The peak rate must be specified as equal to or greater than the committed rate.

Note: Queue depth management defaults to tail drop, but the config diffserv policy randomdrop command can be used to change to a RED scheme.

Format

config diffserv policy shape peak <policyname> <class-

 

name> <1-4294967295> <1-4294967295>

Restrictions

Neither of the shaping rate parameters is allowed to exceed the

 

maximum link data rate of the interface to which the policy is

 

applied.

Policy Type

Incompatibilities

Service Commands

The 'service' command set is used in DiffServ to define:

Traffic Conditioning

Assign a DiffServ traffic conditioning policy (as specified by the

 

policy commands) to an interface in the incoming direction

Service Provisioning

Assign a DiffServ service provisioning policy (as specified by the

 

policy commands) to an interface in the outgoing direction

The service commands attach a defined policy to a directional interface. Only one policy may be assigned at any one time to an interface in a particular direction. The policy type (in, out) must match the interface direction to which it is attached.
