in-profile-action-name
<WORD>
Specify the in-profile action name.
out-profile-action
<1,9-55000>
Specify the out-of-profile action ID; range is 1, 9 to 55000.
When configuring a meter, please note the following:
The maximum burst rat e cannot be configured the same as the committed or metered rat e. You
must always specify a higher maximum burst rate than the committed or metered rate
The maximum burst rat e and burst duration is used to calculate the bucket size or committed
burst in bytes
o
Duration = ((bucketSize*8) / (max-burst-rate
– committed-rate))
Bucket sizes in bytes are 4K, 8K, 16k, 32K, 64K, 128K, 256K, and 512K
For the 10 GigE module only, available for the Ethernet Routing Switch 5530, it supports bucket
sizes of 4K, 8K, 16K, 32K, 64K, 128K, 256K, 512K, 1024K, 2048K, 4096K, and 8192K.
If you do not specify maximum burst duration when setting up a meter, the maximum bucket size
will be automatically set. For all 10/ 100 Mbps and 1 GigE ports, the maximum bucket size is 512K.
Also, it does not matter what value you enter for the maximum burst rate as long as it is larger
than the committed rate.
Example:
Let‟s assume you wish to set the committed rate to 10M and set the committed burst (bucket size) to
128K. We also wish to mark all in profile traffic to Bronze and drop all out of profile traffic. To accomplish
this, please use the following commands:
1. Calculat e the duration, expressed in milliseconds.
Using the actual bucket size from table 7
and a maximum burst rate of 15M
Duration = ((bucketSize*8) / (max-burst-rate
– committed-rate))
Duration = ((131,072* 8) / (15,000,000
– 10,000,000))
Duration = 209.7152 ms
Rounded up, the duration value is 210 ms
2. Next, enter the following command on the Ethernet Switch 5500. Enter an in profile action id of 3 for
an in profile action of Bronze. Enter an out of profile action of 1 for an out of profile action of drop
traffic.
5530-24TFD(config)#
qos meter 1 name meter_1 committed-rate 10000 max-burst-rate
15000 max-burst-duration 210 in-profile-action 3 out-profile-action 1
3. Use the following command to view the meter just configured.

4. Next, you will need to configure a policy and add this meter to the policy.
