Configuring Rate Limits
This function allows the network manager to control the maximum rate
for traffic received on an interface. Rate limiting is configured on interfaces
at the edge of a network to limit traffic coming into the switch. 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.
