Aggregating Policiers

After a packet is classified, the policing process begins. A policier specifies the bandwidth

limit for incoming traffic on the classified flow and actions are defined for packets that

exceed the limits. These actions include forwarding packets, dropping packets, or

remarking packets with a new DSCP value. The device supports per flow and aggregate

policiers.

Aggregate policers enforce limits on a group of flows. An aggregate policer cannot be

deleted if it is being used in a policy map. The Aggregated Policier Page contains

information for defining the bandwidth limits and define actions to take on packets that do

not meet the requirements.

To configure Aggregated Policiers:

1. Click QoS > Advanced Mode >Aggregated Policier. The Aggregated Policier

Page opens:
