This function allows the network manager to control the maximum rate for
traffic transmitted or received on an interface. Rate limiting is configured
on interfaces at the edge of a network to limit traffic into or out of the
network. Packets that exceed the acceptable amount of traffic are dropped.
Rate limiting can be applied to individual ports. When an interface is
configured with this feature, the traffic rate will be monitored by the
hardware to verify conformity. Non-conforming traffic is dropped.
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.

Using both rate limiting and storm control on the same interface may lead
to unexpected results. For example, suppose broadcast storm control is set
to 500 Kbps by the command “switchport broadcast packet-rate 500,” and
the rate limit is set to 20000 Kbps by the command “rate-limit input 20000"
on a Fast Ethernet port. Since 20000 Kbps is 1/5 of line speed (100 Mbps),
the received rate will actually be 100 Kbps, or 1/5 of the 500 Kbps limit set
