ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide

configure meter
configure meter <metername> {max-burst-size <burst-size> [Gb | Kb | Mb]}
{committed-rate <cir> [Gbps | Mbps | Kbps]} {out-actions [drop | set-drop-
precedence {dscp [none | <dscp-value>]}}
Description
Configures an ACL meter.
Syntax Description
Default
By default, a newly committed meter has no maximum burst size, no committed rate, and a default
action of drop.
Usage Guidelines
The ACL meter configured with this command will be associated with an ACL by specifying the meter
name in the action modifier field of the ACL entry.
The
committed-rate
keyword specifies the traffic rate allowed for this meter. The committed traffic rate
may be specified in Kbps, Mbps, or Gbps. The
committed-rate
parameter range is 64Kbps to 1 Gbps
for GE ports and 1 Mbps to 10 Gbps for 10GE ports. The
max-burst-size
keyword specifies the
maximum number of consecutive bits that are allowed to be in-profile at wire-speed. The
burst-size
parameter may be specified in Kb, Mb, or Gb. The specified
burst-size
will be rounded down to the
nearest supported size. For GE ports, the burst sizes are rounded down to the nearest 32Kb, 64Kb,
128Kb, 256Kb, 512Kb, 1Mb, 2Mb, 4Mb, and additionally 8Mb, 16Mb, 32Mb, 64Mb, 128Mb, 256Mb,
512Mb, or 1Gb for 10 GE ports.
The keyword
out-actions
specifies the action that is taken when a packet is out-of-profile. The
supported actions include dropping the packet, marking the drop precedence for the packet, or setting
the DSCP value in the packet. The keyword
drop
indicates that any out-of-profile packet is immediately
dropped. The keyword
set-drop-precedence
marks out-of-profile packets with high drop precedence.
If the optional keyword
set-dscp
is specified, the DSCP value, as specified by the parameter
dscp-
value
, is written into the out-of-profile packet. Setting the DSCP value to
none
leaves the DSCP value in
the packet unchanged.
metername
Specifies the ACL meter name.
max-burst-size
Specifies the maximum burst size.
committed-rate
Specifies the committed rate.
out-actions
Specifies actions to take if traffic exceeds the profile.
drop
Specifies to drop out of profile traffic.
set-drop-precedence
Specifies to mark packet for high drop precedence.
dscp
Specifies to set DSCP.
none
Specifies to leave the DSCP value unchanged.
