Traffic Policing
Policing Actions
Table 6-1 lists the actions the router can take on packets. These are the actions you specify in the police
command.
Note In Table 6-1, the term transmit means that the packet is passed through the policer for further processing.
The policer acts as a filter before the packet is passed on to the next event to happen.
