priority

police {output | input} conform-rate [conform-burst] [conform-action [drop | transmit]]

hostname(config-pmap-c)# police output 56000 10500
The options are:
• conform-burst argument—Specifies the maximum number of instantaneous bytes allowed in a
sustained burst before throttling to the conforming rate value, between 1000 and 512000000 bytes.
