You can configure policers to rate limit traffic on a device. After you configure a policer,
you can include it in an ingress firewall filter configuration.
When you configure a firewall filter, you can specify a policer action for any term or terms
within the filter. All traffic that matches a term that contains a policer action goes through
the policer that the term references. Each policer that you configure includes an implicit
counter. To get term-specific packet counts, you must configure a new policer for each
filter term that requires policing.
The following policer limits apply on the switch:
A maximum of 512 policers can be configured for port firewall filters.
A maximum of 512 policers can be configured for VLAN and Layer 3 firewall filters.
In the navigation tree, select Device Manager > Devices. In Device Manager, select
