Usage Guidelines

To prevent multicast traffic bursts from resulting in multicast packet loss, run the multicast shaping command to set an upper rate limit for multicast traffic on a specified board. Therefore, when the rate of multicast traffic on the board exceeds the upper rate limit, the multicast traffic rate will be shaped to the value specified by <shaping-value> .

Example

# Set the upper rate limit to 1000 Mbit/s for multicast traffic on the board in slot 1.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] slot 1
[*HUAWEI-slot-1] multicast shaping 1000
