no rate-limit vlan
vlan-id
Parameters
•
vlan-id
—Specifies the VLAN ID.
•
committed-rate
—Specifies the average traffic rate (CIR) in kbits per second
(kbps). (Range: 3-57982058)
• burst
committed-burst
—(Optional) Specifies the maximum burst size (CBS)
in bytes. (Range: 3000–19173960). If unspecified, defaults to 128K.
Default Configuration
Rate limiting is disabled.
Command Mode
Global Configuration mode
User Guidelines
The calculated rate includes the 20 bytes of Ethernet framing overhead
(preamble+SFD+IPG).
Traffic policing in a policy map takes precedence over VLAN rate limiting. If a
packet is subject to traffic policing in a policy map and is associated with a VLAN
that is rate limited, the packet is counted only in the traffic policing of the policy
map.
It does not work in conjunction with IP Source Guard.
Example
The following example limits the rate on VLAN 11 to 150000 kbps or the normal
burst size to 9600 bytes.
switchxxxxxx(config)#
rate-limit vlan 11 150000 burst 9600
