Rate Limit Commands
This function allows the network manager to control th e maximum
rate for traffic transmitted or received on an interface. Rate limiting
is configured on interfaces at the edge of a network to limit traffic
into or out of the network. Traffic that falls within the rate limit is
transmitted, while packets that exceed the acceptable amount of
traffic are dropped.
Rate limiting can be applied to individual ports or trunks. When an
interface is configured with this feature, the traffic rate will be
monitored by the hardware to verify conformity. Non-conforming
traffic is dropped, conforming traffic is forwarded without any
changes.
