Configure Traffic Monitoring
To ensure that the overload does not happen to the traffic passing the network and causes the congestion, the device provides the rate limitation based on the port receiving direction, limiting the total rate at the receiving direction of the port. The speeding traffic is dropped.
Configuration Condition
None
Configure Port-based Rate Limitation
To provide different rate limitations for ports at different time periods, each port is configured with eight rate limitations of different priorities. Each rate is limited and then bound to a time domain. For the entries taking effect at the same time, determine which entry takes effect by priority. The number 0 indicates the highest priority and the number 7 indicates the lowest priority. The rate limitation over the port can be configured directly without the time domain.
