Rate Control
Rate limiting is a form of flow control used to enforce a strict bandwidth limit at a port. You can program
separate transmit (Egress Rule) and receive (Ingress Rule) rate limits at each port, and even apply the limit
to certain packet types as described below.

Ingress
Packet Type
You can select the packet type that you want to filter. The Ingress packet types
supported are:
• Broadcast/Multicast/Unknown Unicast
• Broadcast/Multicast
• Broadcast
• All
The Egress rate supports all types of packets.
Bandwidth
All ports support port Ingress and Egress rate control. For example, assume Port 1
is 10Mbps, you can set it's effective Egress rate at 2Mbps, Ingress rate at 1Mbps.
The ES7510-XT performs the Ingress rate by packet counter to meet the specified
rate.
• Ingress
Ingress rate in Mbps, the rate range is from 1 Mbps to 100 Mbps and zero
means no limit. The default value is 8Mbps
• Egress
The default value is no-limit. Egress rate limiting has an effect on all types of
packets, including Unicast, Multicast and Broadcast packets.
