Rate limit on a fast ethernet interface

Hi

I am trying to configure a rate limit on an interface on a 2948 box with 12.0(7)W5(15a) software on it, so that it limits all traffic to 2mbs on a 10 mbs point to point link.

I have configured it as

#rate-limit input 2000000 375000 750000 conform-action transmit exceed-action drop

#rate-limit output 2000000 375000 750000 conform-action transmit exceed-action drop

but when we tried to run iperf on both ends of the link it went through at full 10mbs.

Any ideas anyone?

From the release notes, I don't think QoS or rate-limiting was fully-baked until 12.0(10)W5(18e):

Maybe a code upgrade would help?

Thank you very much - got 12.0(25) and it all works.
