Configure VRF specific rate-limit
IPv6 access-list based rate-limiting can be configured for a specific VRF. Rate-limiting is applied to
the inbound traffic for the interfaces which are part of the configured VRF. The following command
configures rate-limiting for inbound traffic on the VRF “data” using the access-list “fdry”.
Brocade(config-if-1/1)# rate-limit input vrf data access-group name ipv6 fdry
1000000 2000000
Syntax: [no] rate-limit input [vrf VRF_NAME] access-group {name {ipv6} ACL_NAME}
{AVERAGE_RATE_BPS | MAX_BURST_BPS}
NOTE
This feature is not supported in Brocade NetIron CES and Brocade NetIron CER.
Configure outbound rate-limiting on an interface
Use the following steps to configure outbound rate-limiting on an interface.
Configure average and maximum burst sizes
The command configures rate-limiting for outbound traffic on the interface using the IPv6
access-list “fdry”, the average rate as 1000000 and the maximum burst size as 2000000.
Brocade(config-if-1/1)# rate-limit output access-group name ipv6 fdry 1000000
2000000
Syntax: [no] rate-limit output access-group {acl_id | name {ipv6} ACL_NAME}
{AVERAGE_RATE_BPS | MAX_BURST_BPS}
Configure using policy-map
The command configures rate-limiting for outbound traffic on the interface using the IPv6
access-list “fdry” and the policy-map “map5”.
Brocade(config-if-1/1)# rate-limit output access-group name ipv6 fdry policy-map
map5
Syntax: [no] rate-limit output access-group {name {ipv6} ACL_NAME} {policy-map
POLICY_MAP_NAME}
Configure for a specific priority-queue
The command configures rate-limiting for outbound traffic on priority-queue “q0” on the interface
using the IPv6 access-list “fdry”, the average rate as 1000000 and the maximum burst size as
2000000.
Brocade(config-if-1/1)# rate-limit output access-group name ipv6 fdry priority q0
1000000 2000000
Syntax: [no] rate-limit output access-group { name {ipv6} ACL_NAME} [{priority PRIORITY_QUEUE}]
{AVERAGE_RATE_BPS | MAX_BURST_BPS}
The command configures rate-limiting for outbound traffic on priority-queue “q0” on the interface
using the IPv6 access-list “fdry” and the policy-map “map5”.
