rate-limit


Configures a received bandwidth rate limit in bits-per-second to be associated with an access list.

Syntax: rate-limit tagName rate

tagName

Specify a name to associate with the configured rate limit.

rate

Specify a numeric number for the bits-per-second associated with this rate limit. Valid values: 1 - 4294967295 (4gb).

Description: It may be desirable to limit the receive rate in bits-per-second for packet filtering. The received bits are counted per-second. When the configured number of bits are counted, all further packets are dropped for purposes of filtering. Use the rate-limit command to configure a rate limit. Associate the rate limit with an access list using the rate-limit option of the access-list command.

Factory Default: None

Command Mode: Configuration.

Example: The following example configures a rate-limit named rate2gb to rate-limit received bandwidth to 2 gigabits-per-second and associates this rate with the netFlowACL access-list.

router#configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

router(config)#rate-limit rate2gb 2147483647

router(config)#ip access-list extended netFlowACL
