In my experience, it's quite variable (by IOS, platform, phase of moon,
etc) as to whether this *actually* implements a policer or not.  There's
no harm, and a degree of safety in:

class X
 priority <bandwidth>
 police rate <bandwidth>

which is guaranteed to both provide the correct information to the
scheduler, and to police the class.

Tim.
