rule (Traffic Shaping)

Overview This command creates a Traffic Shaping rule. Traffic Shaping policy is specified by
rules that match certain traffic types, and limits the traffic that matches those
particular rules.
Use the no variant of this command to remove the traffic shaping rule.
Syntax rule [<ID>] match <application_name> from <source_entity> to
<destination_entity> rate <1-100000000> [max <1-100000000>]

Default No rules are applied by default.
Mode Traffic-Shaping Configuration
Usage This rule is invalid if either the application, the destination entity, or the source
entity that the rule applies to is not properly configured. For example, all of these
must exist. The destination entity also requires a destination interface per subnet.
As packets egress on interface they are compared sequentially against the list of
rules. This sequential comparison starts at the lowest ID value and works upwards
through the list of ID rules. When it finds its first match to a rule, the sequential

Description
The rule ID is a reference number in the range <10-9999> that is assigned to
each traffic shaping rule. If you don't designate a rule ID, a rule ID will be
automatically generated and it will be greater than the current highest rule ID.
The name of the application e.g. ftp
The source entity name. Entities represent logical grouping of subnets, hosts
or interfaces e.g. wan.
The destination entity name. This requires an interface to be configured for
each subnet e.g. internet.
The minimum guaranteed bandwidth (in kbps) transmitted from an interface
for traffic that meets the specified traffic shaping rule. Note that this minimum
is not guaranteed if a port is over subscribed.
The maximum bandwidth (in kbps) per out going link that traffic matching
this rule can receive, if no other traffic is using the bandwidth. Bandwidth is
borrowed from other rules that are not using it. It will default to the same
value as rate.
The priority of the rule. Traffic matching lower priority rules will have lower
latency, and will be allowed to borrow more bandwidth than lower priority
rules. Priority is 0 (high) to 7 (low). This parameter defaults to 4.
If specified, when used with the no rule command, then all rules are removed.
