Two-Rate Rate-Limits ! 97

Chapter 3: Creating Rate-Limit Profiles

conformed-action

! Use to set the conformed action for a rate-limit profile.

! Valid conformed actions are:

! drop—Drop the packet.

! transmit—Transmit the packet. The following values apply only to

hierarchical rate limits:

" conditional—Transmit the packet through the rate limit to the next

rate limit in the hierarchy.

" unconditional—Transmit the packet through the rate-limit hierarchy to

deplete the tokens.

" final—Transmit the packet and exit the rate-limit hierarchy.

! mark—For IP and IPv6 rate-limit profiles, mark the packet by setting the

ToS byte (IP) or traffic class field (IPv6) to the specified 8-bit value, and

transmit the packet. The mark value is masked with the default 255 unless

it is overridden by the mask-val command to specify a different mask; not

supported on hierarchical rate limits.

! mark-exp—For MPLS rate-limit profiles, set the EXP bits of MPLS packets

to the specified value in the range 0–7, and transmit the packet. The mark

EXP value is masked with the default 7 unless you use the exp-mask

command to specify a different mask; not supported on hierarchical rate

limits.

! Packets are colored yellow.

! Example

host1(config-rate-limit-profile)#conformed-action transmit

! Use the no version to restore the default value, transmit.

exceeded-action

! Use to set the exceeded action for a rate-limit profile.

! Valid exceeded actions are:
