traffic-limit outbound (AS administrator profile view)

Function

The traffic-limit outbound command configures the rate limit for outgoing ARP and DHCP packets on an AS uplink fabric port.

The undo traffic-limit outbound command restores the default rate limit for outgoing ARP and DHCP packets on an AS uplink fabric port.

By default, the rate limits for outgoing ARP packets and DHCP packets are 32 kbit/s and 128 kbit/s respectively on an AS uplink fabric port.

This command can only be executed on a parent switch.

Format

traffic-limit outbound { arp | dhcp } cir cir-value

undo traffic-limit outbound { arp | dhcp }

Parameters

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

After an AS administrator profile is created, you can configure the rate limit for outgoing ARP and DHCP packets on an AS uplink fabric port. After the AS goes online, the following configuration is generated in the AS Eth-Trunk 0 view and system view, regardless of whether the AS administrator profile is bound to the AS:

#
acl number 3999
 rule 5 permit udp destination-port eq bootps
#
acl number 4998
 rule 5 permit vlan-id management-vlan
acl number 4999
 rule 5 permit l2-protocol arp destination-mac ffff-ffff-ffff
 rule 10 permit l2-protocol arp 
#
interface Eth-Trunk0
 traffic-filter outbound acl 4998 
 traffic-statistic outbound acl 3999
 traffic-limit outbound acl 3999 cir cir-value pir pir-value cbs cbs-value pbs pbs-value
 traffic-statistic outbound acl 4999
 traffic-limit outbound acl 4999 cir cir-value pir pir-value cbs cbs-value pbs pbs-value
#

Example

# Set the rate limit for outgoing ARP packets to 64 on an uplink fabric port.
