Rate Limit Commands
– 344 –
rate-limit
This command defines the rate limit for a specific interface. Use this command
without specifying a rate to restore the default rate. Use the
no form to restore the
default status of disabled.
Syntax
rate-limit { input | output } [ rate ]
no rate-limit { input | output }
input – Input rate for specified interface
output – Output rate for specified interface
rate – Maximum value in Kbps. (Range: 64-1000000 Kbps)
Default Setting
Disabled
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet)
Command Usage
Using both rate limiting and storm control on the same interface may lead to
unexpected results. It is therefore not advisable to use both of these commands on
the same interface.
Note: Due to a chip limitation, the switch supports only one limit for both ingress
rate limiting and storm control (including broadcast unknown unicast, multicast,
and broadcast storms).
Example
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/1
Console(config-if)#rate-limit input 64
Console(config-if)#
