3750 rate-limiting

[aolabisi]

I have a Catalyst 3750G-24TS-24 switched with the enhanced image.

One of the optical interfaces is connected to an uplink OC12 Mux. I would like to run 3 of its copper Gigabit interfaces at 200Mbps each.

Is this possible? example, ideas, urls etc are welcome.

Hello Dayo,

you could configure unicast storm-control on your ports:

interface GigabitEthernet0/1

storm-control unicast level 20.00

This would limit the port to 20% of 1 Gigabit, which effectively means 200Mbit.

HTH,

going thru the command reference - I found 3 commands that could be used:

mls qos

srr-queue

storm-control

Which of these 3 commands is the best choice in a high traffic environment. i.e. which is less CPU intensive and doesn't cause too much harm to the underlying applications.
