Variable Value
Applies rate limiting, in packets/second, to
the specified type of traffic:
• multicast — applies rate limiting to
multicast packets
• broadcast — applies rate limiting to
broadcast packets
• both — applies rate limiting to both
multicast and broadcast packets
Sets the pps (Packets Per Second) upper
threshold limit for the traffic type. When the
volume of packets exceeds this threshold,
packets are dropped. The pps value you set
is a small percent of the maximum value of
pps for the total available bandwidth (262143
pps).
