Rate-Limiting
Displaying the Current Rate-Limit Configuration
The show rate-limit all command displays the per-port rate-limit configuration.
Syntax: show rate-limit all [ port-list ]
Without [ port-list ], this command lists the rate-limit
configuration for all ports on the switch. With [ port-list ], this
command lists the rate-limit configuration for the specified
port(s). This command operates the same way in any CLI
context.
For example, if you wanted to view the rate-limiting configuration:
ProCurve(config)# show rate-limit all
Inbound Rate Limit Maximum %
Port | Limit Mode Radius Override
----- + -------- --------- --------------
-
1 | Disabled Disabled No-override
2 | 500 kbps No-override
3 | 50 % No-override
4 | Disabled Disabled No-override
5 | Disabled Disabled No-override
6 | Disabled Disabled No-override

Operating Notes for Rate-Limiting
â– Rate-limiting operates on a per-port basis, regardless of traffic
priority. Rate-limiting is available on all types of ports (other than trunked
ports) on the switches covered in this guide, and at all port speeds
configurable for these devices.
â– Rate-limiting is not allowed on trunked ports: Rate-limiting is not
supported on ports configured in a trunk group. Configuring a port for
rate-limiting and then adding it to a trunk suspends rate-limiting on the
port while it is in the trunk. Attempting to configure rate-limiting on a port
that already belongs to a trunk generates the following message:
< port-list >: Operation is not allowed for a trunked port.
