[c-nsp] Cisco 7600 rate-limit support question

[Paolo Lucente]

Hi,

it most likely depends on the interface you are trying to rate-limiting
rather than the IOS. On FlexWANs you can use CAR; you can't on SPAs and
Sup720/RSP720 upstream interfaces. 

Btw, why don't you like policing via MQC? It simply works well and it's
supported on pretty much all the current Supervisors, Carrier Ethernet
and WAN line-cards. 

Cheers,
Paolo
