Enable this option to apply traffic type classification
restrictions and packet drop criteria to EX3500 switch data
traffic. This option is dialed by default. |
Police Traffic Type |
Use the drop-down menu to specify the EX3500 switch
traffic type to drop when the specified violation criteria
is exceeded. A policing scheme can be applied before writing
packets to the TX port by dropping or changing the color
(green, yellow or red) of the packet in a static manner,
depending on both the input and output colors of the
packets. Options include flow, srtcm_color_aware,
srtcm_color_blind, trtcm_color_aware and
trtcm_color_blind. |
Drop |
Select this option to drop EX3500 switch packets when the
violation action criteria has been exceeded. This option is
not available when flow is selected as Police Action
Type. |
New IP DSCP |
Use the spinner control to set a DSCP value (from 0 - 63)
as required by an exceeded action criteria. DSCP is the
Differentiated Services Code Point field in an IP header for
packet classification. Packets are filtered based on the
traffic class defined in the IP DSCP field. This option is
not available when flow is selected as the Police Action
Type or when Drop is enabled. |
Violate-Action Drop |
Select this option to drop packets when the specified
traffic type classification restrictions and packet drop
criteria are exceeded. When enabled (default setting), the
Violate Action New IP DSCP setting is disabled. |
Violate-Action New IP DSCP |
If the Violate-Action Drop option is disabled, set a DSCP
value (from 0 - 63) as required by an exceeded action
criteria. |
Committed Burst Size |
Set a committed (maximum) burst size between 0 -
16,000,000. The smaller the burst, the less likely received
EX3500 switch packets result in data traffic
congestion. |
Committed Rate |
Set the committed information rate (CIR) from 0 -
1,000,000 for EX3500 switch data traffic. The CIR is a
bandwidth (expressed in bits per second) allocated to the
connection with the EX3500 switch. This form of rate
limiting reduces the maximum rate sent or received, and
prevents any single EX3500 switch from overwhelming the WiNG
managed network. |
Exceeded Burst Size |
When srtcm_color_aware or srtcm_color_blind are selected
as the Police Traffic Type, set an excess burst size (from 0
- 16,000,000 bytes). The excess busrt size allows for
periods of bursting traffic exceeding both the committed
information rate (CIR) and committed burst size. |
Peak Burst Size |
When trtcm_color_aware or trtcm_color_blind are selected
as the Police Traffic Type, set a Peak Burst Size (from 0 -
16,000,000 bytes). The Peak Burst Size defines the maximum
number of bytes of unused peak bandwidth capacity that can
be accumulated. The accumulated bandwidth allows for periods
of bursting traffic exceeding the Peak Info Rate and
Committed Burst Size. |
Peak Info Rate |
When trtcm_color_aware or trtcm_color_blind are selected
as the Police Traffic Type, set a Peak Info Rate (from 0 -
1,000,000 kilobytes per second). The Peak Info Rate is the
maximum rate for traffic arriving or departing the interface
under peak conditions. Traffic exceeding the committed
information rate (CIR) and the committed burst size is
metered to the Peak Info Rate. |
