Action Description
police bps [burst-normal | burst-excess]
[conform-action action | exceed-action action]
Configures traffic policing in policy-map class
configuration mode.
bps is the average rate in bits per second. Valid
values are from 8,000 to 200,000,000.
(Optional) burst-normal is the normal burst size in
bytes. Valid values are from 1,000 to 51,200,000.
(Optional) burst-excess is the excess burst size in
bytes. Valid values are from 1,000 to 51,200,000.
conform-action action specifies the action to take
on packets that conform to the rate limit. The default
action is transmit.
exceed-action action specifies the action to take on
packets that exceed the rate limit. The default action
is drop.
Note You can specify only one action each for
conform or exceed. Do not specify multiple
actions.
See Table 3-9 on page 3-12 for a list of available
policing actions.
queue-limit number-of-packets Specifies or modifies the maximum number of
packets that the queue can hold for this class.
For PRE1, number-of-packets is a number from 32
to 16,384; the number must be a power of 2. If the
number you specify is not a power of 2, the router
uses the nearest power of 2 to your number.
For Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)BX and
Release
12.2(16)BX, number-of-packets is a
number from 32 to 16,384. The number does not
need to be a power of 2.
For Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)XI and later releases,
if the interface speed is less than 500
MB,
number-of-packets is a number from 8 to 4096; the
number must be a power of 2. If the interface speed
is greater than 500 MB, number-of-packets is a
number from 128 to 64,000; the number must be a
power of 2.
