Hi all experts.
I have a 4Mb internet connection coming on my 3845 router. Following is the diagram
LAN-------------------------------R1(3845)----------------------------------------Internet
Gig0/0 Gig0/1
Now on LAN i have on user with ip 10.1.8.15. My entire LAN is using the internet and everything is working fine. I just want to limit the internet usage (bandwidth usage) of 10.1.8.15 to 256 kpbs. Whether the 4Mb internet is completely idle, i still want to give me no more then 256k.
Right now i am confused as to use rate limit or service policy commands. As far as i remember, service policy will only come into effect when there is congestion.
I never ask for configuration but in this particular case, i can see the configuration would be simple. If possible kindly tell me what the configuration might be, if not then kindly forward me to specific doc so i can configure it.If there are other built-in IOS bandwidth management tools then pls let me know.
kindly help

Hi,
You can try rate limiting that host by using an access group.
see the command reference guide for examples:

Sir, i have already done that, since it was'nt working, thats why i asked for config.
Keeping in mind the above scenario. This is my config
access-list 101 per ip any host 10.1.8.15
Since bulk of traffic will be coming in on interface Gig0/1 going to 10.1.8.15. so the direction would be input (i think)
rate-limit input access-group 101 256000 1500 2000 conform-action transmit exceed-action drop
Its not working :-(

Rate-limit is applied before or after the NAT ? since i am doing nat, does this has anything to do with it ?
