Configuring Rate Limits
This function allows the network manager to control the maximum rate
for traffic received on a port or transmitted from a port. Rate limiting is
configured on ports at the edge of a network to limit traffic coming in and
out of the network. Packets that exceed the acceptable amount of traffic
are dropped.
Rate limiting can be applied to individual ports or trunks. When an
interface is configured with this feature, the traffic rate will be monitored
by the hardware to verify conformity. Non-conforming traffic is dropped,
conforming traffic is forwarded without any changes.
Rate Limit Configuration
Use the rate limit configuration pages to apply rate limiting.
