Need to rate-limit customer to 3mg in/out on dot1q router interface

[bregimand]

I'm thinking my config is OK, but the sh inter rate-limit is confusing me. Please take a look at my config & output and let me know if this looks right.

Simple sub-interface on a 3640, dot1q, customer must be throttled to no more than 3mg. Second option is a 3mg limit with burst capability to 4mg.

Config:

interface FastEthernet0/0.40

description 3MG

encapsulation dot1Q 40

ip address 10.10.1.1 255.255.255.252

no ip redirects

rate-limit input 3144000 196500 393000 conform-action transmit exceed-action drop

rate-limit output 3144000 196500 393000 conform-action transmit exceed-action drop

no cdp enable

!

Interface Rate-limit Output:

Any suggestions?

I have 2 customers right now that must be limited and more to follow in the same manner.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

which part of the output is unclear ? From what I can see, your config is working fine, traffic is being dropped...

Thanks GP,

The part that reads 196500 limit has me 2nd guessing my config. Same with this output in the inbound traffic: params: 3144000 bps, 196500 limit, 393000 extended limit 3144000 is what I'd like to the total bandwidth to be & this shows 196500 as the "limit". I know for a fact that this customer pushes 2-3mg of data on a consistent basis & the only conforming data shows "conformed 244000 bps"

I guess I'm just looking for clairification for monitoring & testing purposes.

Thanks again.
