Specifies the traffic police rate in bits per second. Valid range is 32,000 to
32,000,000,000.
(Optional) Bits per second (bps) will be used to determine the rate at which
traffic is policed.
Note
(Optional) Specifies the burst rate, in bytes, will be used for policing traffic.
Valid range is from 64 to 2,596,929,536.
(Optional) Specifies the peak burst value, in bytes, for the peak rate. Valid
range is from 32,000 to 32,000,000,000.
(Optional) Specifies the peak burst value, in bytes, will be used for policing
traffic. If the police rate is specified in bps, the valid range of values is 64 to
2,596,929,536.
(Optional) A percentage of interface bandwidth will be used to determine the
rate at which traffic is policed.
(Optional) Bandwidth percentage. Valid range is a number from 1 to 100.
(Optional) Burst rate, in milliseconds, will be used for policing traffic. Valid
range is a number from 1 to 2,000.
(Optional) A percentage of interface bandwidth will be used to determine the
PIR. Valid range is a number from 1 to 100.
(Optional) Peak burst rate, in milliseconds, will be used for policing traffic.
Valid range is a number from 1 to 2,000.
