[cisco-nas] Problems with rate-limit

[Richard Greasley]

Yes, actually I just did, however not with the burst...
I was running a test with the customer and from I've found.
rate-limit output 960000 10000 20000 conform-action transmit exceed-action
drop
rate-limit input 960000 10000 20000 conform-action transmit exceed-action
drop
Seems to be keeping them at around 256kb/s

regards,
Richardg;
