Appendix D

Rate Limiting on the AT-CM2K0S Line
Card

Due to the hardware component design of the AT-CM2K0S line card, the
rate limit you specify (see “Setting the Port Ingress and Egress Rate
Limits” on page 88
) may not be the same as the actual value used by the
hardware. For example, when you specify a value between 150,000 and
250,000, the actual value for all settings in that range is 285,714. Figure 93
is a graph of the ingress or egress rate limit that you specify versus the
average rate limit that is configured on the line card.

Figure 93. Rate Limit Input vs. Hardware Configured Values

Table 11 lists the actual values show in Figure 93. When you see multiple
values in the “Specified Rate Limit (Kbps)” column and “Same” in the
“Average Rate Limit (Kbps)” column, it means that the average rate limit
value equals the rate limit that you entered. When you see multiple values
in the “Specified Rate Limit (Kbps)” column and one value in the “Average
Rate Limit (Kbps)” column, it means that all the specified values result in
the same average rate limit.
