the Gigabit Ethernet ports. Use the no form of this command to restore the default
setting.
Syntax
rate-limit {fastethernet | gigabitethernet} granularity [granularity]
no rate-limit {fastethernet | gigabitethernet} granularity
• fastethernet – Fast Ethernet granularity
• gigabitethernet – Gigabit Ethernet granularity
• granularity – Sets rate limit granularity for the system. For Fast Ethernet,
choose 512 Kbps, 1 Mbps, or 3.3 Mbps. For Gigabit Ethernet, only one
granularity option is supported, 33.3 Mbps
Default Setting
Fast Ethernet interface – 3.3 Mbps
Gigabit Ethernet interface – 33.3 Mbps
Command Mode
Global Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
Command Usage
Actual rate limit = Rate limit level * Granularity
