Rate-limiting in cat2960

[server-online]

Hello,

I have a switch catalyst 2960 and i need do rate-limiting in a port fastethernet.

In the configuration guide in the chapter of Configuring QoS says as to do it, and I configuration:

configure terminal

class-map clase

policy-map politi

class clase

trust dscp

set dscp 0

police 1000000 8000 exceed-action drop

exit

exit

interface fastethernet 0/2

service-policy input politi

end

that configuration what causes is limit the port 0/2 to 1 Mbps then if i send to the server that is in these port a file, That discharge cannot pass from 1 Mbps not?

What am i doing bad?

Thank you,

Regards

Hi,

Thank you by respond.

I want a solution for traffic limit of the ethernet. By example:

If the port 2 send or receive a file and it saturates with a bandwitch of 30 Mbps the out to internet. The other ports would remain no way out to internet.

Thank you,

Regards.

uhmm, sorry but I don't understand.

if you want a generic traffic limit, maybe 'rate-limit' (policing with CAR) is your choice. But with your topology I maybe could help you better ...
