Traffic Rate Limiting on Cisco ASA 5510?

DejanMilicevic — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 18:36:06 GMT

We have internet bandwidth 4/4 Mbps on outside interface. To inside interface are coming few internal network. How to limit internet bandwith usage for let's say 10.1.103.0/24 network to use 100/100 kbps. We tried as shown below but without luck. If we create subinterfaces for each vlan, we can apply policy on interfaces and that's working, but now we must do that ont few internal networks coming to ASA on inside interface.

Are we apply traffic shaping (limit the flow of traffic) or traffic policing (traffic that exceeds the speed limit on the interface is dropped) and what about burst

size? What is policing output and input? Why isn't this working?

name 10.1.103.0 WirelessPrivate description WirelesusersPrivate

access-list rate-limit-wireless extended permit ip WirelessPrivate 255.255.255.0 interface outside

class-map rate-limit
match access-list rate-limit-wireless

policy-map limit-policy
class rate-limit
police output 100000 8000
police input 100000 8000

Hi Dejan,

Take a look at this link--it describes the differences between the various QoS options and provides config examples for each scenario:

Hope that helps.

Hi Dejan,

This configuration will not work as the rate limiting is not bidirectional and the other thing it should be configured on your inside interface but in your case you have rate limiting configured it on your outside interface. If you want this to enable on your all the interface then apply service policy onto global . So that this way the policy map will be applied to all the interfaces.

To activate the policy map on one or more interfaces, enter the following command:

hostname(config)# service-policy policymap_name {global | interface interface_name}

Where global applies the policy map to all interfaces, and interface applies the policy to one interface. Only one global policy is allowed. Interface service policies take precedence over the global service policy for a given feature.

For example, if you have a global policy with inspections, and an interface policy with TCP normalization, then both inspections and TCP normalization are applied to the interface. However, if you have a global policy with inspections, and an interface policy with inspections, then only the interface policy inspections are applied to that interface.

With the new modular policy framework (MPF) introduced in ASA versions 7.x and 8.x, the firewall administrator is now able to apply policing and rate limiting to traffic passing through the ASA appliance. I got a few questions from people how this functionality works and decided to throw in a quick example below which you can easily modify accordingly to match your needs.

Scenario:

We want to rate limit a local internal host when accessing a specific external public server. The local host is 192.168.1.10 and the external public server is 100.100.100.1. We need to limit the traffic to 100kbps and burst size 8000.

Configuration Snippet:

ASA(config)#access-list rate-limit-acl extended permit ip host 192.168.1.10 host 100.100.100.1

ASA(config)#class-map rate-limit
ASA(config-cmap)#match access-list rate-limit-acl

ASA(config)#policy-map limit-policy
ASA(config-pmap)#class rate-limit
ASA(config-pmap-c)#police output 100000 8000

ASA(config)#service-policy limit-policy interface outside

For detail in this regard Kindly go through the following referencce page for all the configuration related information for Bandwidth Management(Rate Limit) Using QoS Policies

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vpndevc/ps2030/products_tech_note09186a008084de0c.shtml#rate

ASA config is below and bandwith limit is 512/512 kbit/s. With any combination using policy on outside/inside interface and input/output (single or both) it doesn't work? Any suggestions?

WHat if you do a show policy-map interface inside?

You ACL - are you sure that this is correct?? I think it should be the following

access-list rate-limit-wireless extended permit ip WirelessPrivate 255.255.255.0 any

If you only have 4mb on your internet facing connection, I would apply the following outbound on the outside (assuming that the rate-limit-wireless ACL is correct)

class-map wireless
match access-list rate-limit-wireless
!
policy-map wireless
class wireless
police 512000

!
policy-map qos
class class-default
shape average 4000000
service-policy wireless
!
service-policy qos interface outside

I have 4 public addresses

Ahmad-Maan — Wed, 21 Oct 2015 04:43:20 GMT

I have 4 public addresses with 8 Mbps now. i want to distribute 2Mbps on each public ip address in asa5515.
