Limiting Traffic Rate QoS Configuration
Note You can configure a maximum of 24 port and aggregate rate limiting policies per
RS line card.
26.10.1 Rate Limiting Modes
Per-flow and flow-aggregate rate limiting is enabled on the RS by default. If you need to create aggregate or input
port-level rate limiting policies, you must enable the aggregate rate limiting mode on each affected line card. If you
enable aggregate rate limiting mode on a line card, you will not be able to apply new per-flow or flow-aggregate rate
limiting policies to interfaces on that line card.
The rate limiting mode can be changed only if there are no existing rate limiting policies. For example, before you can
enable aggregate rate limiting on a line card, you need to delete any existing per-flow or flow-aggregate rate limiting
policies on that line card.
To enable aggregate or port-level rate limiting on a line card, enter the following command in Configure mode:
Note To change the rate limiting on the line card back to per-flow or flow-aggregate,
negate the above command.
26.10.2 Per-Flow Rate Limiting
Use a per-flow rate limiting policy if an individual traffic flow needs to be limited to a particular rate. A single per-flow
rate limiting policy can have multiple ACLs to define different traffic profiles and traffic rate limitations. When there
are multiple traffic profiles, a sequence number is used to identify the order in which the profiles are applied.
Note Per-flow rate limiting is enabled on the RS by default. If you enable aggregate rate
limiting on a particular line card, you cannot apply per-flow rate limiting policies
for ports on that line card.
Note You cannot use non-IP ACLs for per-flow rate limit policies.
Enable aggregate rate limiting mode
on an RS line card.
