Rate Limiting And Shaping

Context

Interface-based rate limiting limits the rate of all packets passing through the interface to ensure that the bandwidth is within the allowed range. Packets received on an interface enter different queues based on priority mapping. The switch provides differentiated services by setting different traffic shaping parameters for queues with different priorities.

Procedure

  1. Choose Configuration > Security Services > QoS Configuration and click the Rate Limiting And Shaping tab.

  2. Select a port to be configured. Perform the following operations as required in the port area:

    • Click a port icon. To deselect the port, click the port icon again.
    • Drag the cursor to select consecutive ports in a batch.
    • Click multiple port icons to select these ports, and click a port icon again to deselect the port.
    • Select a slot where an LPU is located. All ports on the LPU are selected.

  3. Set Outbound rate limit(Kbps).
  4. In the Outbound queue shaping area, set the CIR and PIR for queues.
  5. Click Apply.
