TrafficPolicing
Possible Settings: Enable, Disable
Default Setting: Enable
Determines if CIR (Committed Information Rate) and EIR (Excess Information Rate) are
enforced by the unit on frames sent to the network interface.
Enable – CIR and EIR are enforced:
– Frames that exceed CIR are marked Discard Eligible (DE).
– Frames in excess of EIR are discarded.
– For the CSU/DSU only, DE frames received from the external router are credited as
frames transmitted above CIR. They are credited as frames transmitted between
CIR and EIR until that count reaches its limit, at which point they are counted as
frames transmitted above EIR.
Disable – CIR and EIR are not enforced.
