Bandwidth Policer Overview
For a single-rate two-color policer only, you can specify the bandwidth limit as a
percentage value from 1 through 100 instead of as an absolute number of bits per second.
This type of two-color policer, called a
bandwidth policer
, rate-limits traffic to a bandwidth
limit that is calculated as a percentage of either the physical interface media rate or the
logical interface configured shaping rate.
Guidelines for Configuring a Bandwidth Policer
The following guidelines apply to configuring a bandwidth policer:
•
To specify a percentage bandwidth limit, you include the
percentage
statement in place of the
bps
statement.
•
By default, a bandwidth policer calculates the percentage bandwidth limit based on
the physical interface port speed. To configure a bandwidth policer to calculate the
percentage bandwidth limit based on the configured logical interface shaping rate
instead, include the
statement at the
[edit firewall policer
policer-name
]
hierarchy level. This type of bandwidth policer is called a
logical bandwidth
policer
.
You can configure a logical interface shaping rate by including the
shaping-rate
bps
statement at the
[edit class-of-service interfaces interface
interface-name
unit
logical-unit-number
]
hierarchy level. A logical interface shaping rate causes the specified
amount of bandwidth to be allocated to the logical interface.
NOTE:
If you configure a logical-bandwidth policer and then apply the
policer to a logical interface that is not configured with a shaping rate, then
the policer rate-limits traffic on that logical interface to calculate the
percentage bandwidth limit based on the physical interface port speed,
even if you include the
logical-bandwidth-policer
statement in the bandwidth
policer configuration.
