Bandwidth Control Setting
This function allows the network manager to control the maximum rate for traffic received on a port or
transmitted from a port. Rate limiting is configured on ports at the edge of a network to limit traffic into or out of
the switch. Packets that exceed the acceptable amount of traffic are dropped.
Rate limiting can be applied to individual ports or trunks. When an interface is configured with this feature, the
traffic rate will be monitored by the hardware to verify conformity. Non-conforming traffic is dropped;
conforming traffic is forwarded without any changes. Input and output rate limits can be enabled or disabled for
individual interfaces.
