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. You can increment the volume step by 8Kbps in the blank.

Bandwidth
The ports support port Ingress and Egress rate control. For example, assume that
Port 1 is 10000 Kbps, you can set it's effective Egress rate at 2000 Kbps, Ingress
rate is 1000 Kbps. The ES9528 performs the Ingress rate by packet counter to meet
the specified rate.
• Ingress
Ingress rate in Kbps, the rate range is from 1000 Kbps to 1000000 Kbps and
zero means no limit. The default value is no-limit.
• Egress
Egress rate in Kbps, the rate range is from 1000 Kbps to 1000000 Kbps and
zero means no limit. The default value is no-limit. Egress rate limiting has an
effect on all types of packet types, including Unknown Unicast, Multicast, and
Broadcast.
