Traffic Policing and Traffic Shaping Configurations
This document describes basic concepts of traffic policing and traffic shaping, and configuration methods of traffic policing based on a traffic classifier and traffic shaping, and provides configuration examples.
- Overviews of Traffic Policing and
Traffic Shaping
Traffic policing and traffic shaping monitor traffic entering a network to control traffic and resource usage and better serve users. - Traffic Policing and Traffic Shaping Features Supported by the Device
To make full use of limited network resources, you can police and shape specific service flows to adapt to the allocated network resources. - Configuring Traffic Policing
Interface-based traffic policing allows the device to limit the rate of all service traffic on an interface. Flow-based traffic policing allows the device to limit the rate of packets matching traffic classification rules. - Configuring Traffic Shaping
Traffic shaping enables outgoing traffic to be sent out at an even rate and reduces the number of discarded packets that exceed the CIR. - Maintaining Traffic Policing and Traffic Shaping
This section how to maintain traffic policing and traffic shaping, including displaying and clearing traffic statistics. - Configuration Examples
This section provides several configuration examples of traffic policing and traffic shaping.
