policy-map class configuration command to define a policer for classified traffic. A
policer defines a maximum permissible rate of transmission, a maximum burst size for transmissions,
and an action to take if either maximum is exceeded. Use the
no

existing policer.

Policy-map class configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
When configuring hierarchical policy maps, you can only use the
police
policy-map command in a
secondary interface-level policy map.
The port ASIC device, which controls more than one physical port, supports 256 policers (255 policers
plus 1
no
policer). The maximum number of policers supported per port is 64. Policers are allocated on
demand by the software and are constrained by the hardware and ASIC boundaries. You cannot reserve
policers per port. There is no guarantee that a port will be assigned to any policer.
To return to policy-map configuration mode, use the
exit
command. To return to privileged EXEC mode,
use the
end
command.
rate-bps
Specify the average traffic rate in bits per second (bps). The range is 1000000
to 1000000000.
burst-byte
Specify the normal burst size in bytes. The range is 8000 to 1000000.
exceed-action drop
(Optional) When the specified rate is exceeded, specify that the switch drop
the packet.
exceed-action
policed-dscp-transmit
(Optional) When the specified rate is exceeded, specify that the switch
changes the Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) of the packet to that
specified in the policed-DSCP map and then sends the packet.
