[c-nsp] VLAN traffic shaping on Cat6500/SUP720

[Vladimir Ivashchenko]

Hi,

Is there a way to make hierarchical traffic shaping work on VLAN
interface on Cat6500 with SUP720? I understand that traffic shaping is
not supported by PFC, so we issued "no mls switching" command and from
"show policy-map interface" I see that packets are passing through.
However, it seems that no shaping is done, as the policy is passing 2
mbps of traffic even though I have set "shape average 512000" on it. We
tried it on 12.2(17d)SXB1 and 12.2(17d)SXB8.

no mls switching
!
class-map match-all Any_traffic
  match any
!
policy-map Test
  class Any_traffic
    shape average 512000 2048 2048
!
interface Vlan809
 service-policy output Test

sw-bbone1.lim#sh policy-map interface
 Vlan809

  Service-policy output: Test

    Class-map: Any_traffic (match-all)

      shape (average) cir 512000 bc 2048 be 2048

    Class-map: class-default (match-any)
