Policy Map Shape Average Question

Mark Wagnon

Hello,

I have a question about the shape average command on our 3845 router. Currently we have a 100 Mbps Opteman connection that we are upgrading to Gigaman. We have the policy configured as so:

policy-map Shape100Meg
class class-default
  shape average 100000000
 
I was going to create a new policy for 1000000000 bps like so:

policy-map Shape1000Meg
class class-default
  shape average 1000000000

but I get an error:

sbusd-3845-opteman(config-pmap-c)#shape average 1000000000

                                                         ^

% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

It seems the value is one digit too long:

sbusd-3845-opteman(config-pmap-c)#shape average ?
  <8000-154400000>  Target Bit Rate (bits per second), the value needs to be multiple of 8000
  percent           % of interface bandwidth for Committed information rate

We're a bit dated on the IOS:

Cisco IOS Software, 3800 Software (C3845-SPSERVICESK9-M), Version 12.4(11)T2, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc4)

Is this something that can be fixed through an update? Or can I choose not to shape? It's my understanding the connection is capped at 1 gig.

Any and all help is much appreciated!

Mark
