Syntax Description
Command Default This command is disabled by default.
units Specifies the traffic police rate in bits per second. Valid range is 32,000 to
32,000,000,000.
bps (Optional) Bits per second (bps) will be used to determine the rate at which
traffic is policed.
Note If a rate is not specified, traffic is policed via bps.
burst burst-in-bytes
bytes
(Optional) Specifies the burst rate, in bytes, will be used for policing traffic.
Valid range is from 64 to 2,596,929,536.
peak-rate
peak-rate-in-bps bps
(Optional) Specifies the peak burst value, in bytes, for the peak rate. Valid
range is from 32,000 to 32,000,000,000.
peak-burst
peak-burst-in-bytes
bytes
(Optional) Specifies the peak burst value, in bytes, will be used for policing
traffic. If the police rate is specified in bps, the valid range of values is 64 to
2,596,929,536.
percent (Optional) A percentage of interface bandwidth will be used to determine the
rate at which traffic is policed.
percentage (Optional) Bandwidth percentage. Valid range is a number from 1 to 100.
burst ms ms (Optional) Burst rate, in milliseconds, will be used for policing traffic. Valid
range is a number from 1 to 2,000.
peak-rate percent
percentage
(Optional) A percentage of interface bandwidth will be used to determine the
PIR. Valid range is a number from 1 to 100.
peak-burst ms ms (Optional) Peak burst rate, in milliseconds, will be used for policing traffic.
Valid range is a number from 1 to 2,000.
