rate-limit

This command defines the rate limit for a specific interface. Use this command
without specifying a rate to enable rate limiting. Use the no form to disable rate
limiting.
Syntax
rate-limit {input | output} [rate]
no rate-limit {input | output}
input – Input rate for specified interface
output – Output rate for specified interface
rate – Maximum value in Kbps.
(Range: 64 - 10,000,000 Kbits per second for 10G Ethernet ports;
64 - 40,000,000 Kbits per second for 40G Ethernet ports)
Default Setting

Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
Command Usage
◆
If the rate limit is enabled without entering a specific rate, it will be set to the
maximum possible rate for that interface.
◆
Using both rate limiting and storm control on the same interface may lead to
unexpected results. It is therefore not advisable to use both of these commands
on the same interface.
Example
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/1
Console(config-if)#rate-limit input 64
Console(config-if)#
