set flowlimit port class

Use this command to assign a flow limiting user classification to one or more port(s)

Syntax

set flowlimit port class class-index [port-string]

Parameters

class-index Specifies a numeric value or classification type keyword for the class user classification type to assign to this action. Valid values are from 0 - 4294967295 or a classification type keyword:
  • userport - An edge port with a single attached user. Class index = 1.
  • serverport - A port with a server attached to it. Class index = 2.
  • aggregateduser - An edge port with multiple users attached to it. Class index = 3
  • interswitchlink - A high speed interconnect port between switches or routers. Class index = 4.
  • unspecified - A port for which the intended usage is unknown. Class index = 5.
port-string (Optional) Specifies port(s) on which to configure flow limiting class.

Defaults

If port-string is not specified, the specified class setting will apply to all ports.

Mode

All command modes.

Usage

A maximum of 10 user classification types can be defined per port as a combination of numeric values and predefined user classification types. Once a classification is assigned, these ports will be subject to the flow limit configured (with the set flowlimit limit command as described in set flowlimit limit) and the action configured (with the set flowlimit action command as described in set flowlimit action).

Entering a predefined user classification type sets the numeric class index value to the value specified in the parameter table.

Example

This example shows how to assign the user port classification type to ports ge.2.3-5:

System(rw)->set flowlimit port class userport ge.2.3-5
