I do not remember that i-series damage the traffic, because those are able rate shape. you have not a great granularity, but it works. if this damage your traffic, I think your traffic will always damaged by rate limiters (as in the 200, 450s) or rate shapers. is your traffic UDP or TCP? in the case of TCP it should work well. more bad for UDP traffic. reg hvm <BR><BR><TABLE id=alt style="PADDING-LEFT: 10px; FONT-SIZE: 9pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 20px; BORDER-LEFT: blue 2px solid; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana"><TBODY><TR><TD><HR><B>Von:</B> Iñaki Martínez Díez <NETWORKING@HOSTALIA.COM><BR><B>Gesendet:</B> 18.08.07 01:36:17<BR><B>An:</B> extreme-nsp@puck.nether.net<BR><B>Betreff:</B> [e-nsp] rate-limit<BR><BR>Hi,<BR><BR> I need to limit a port to a bandwidth limit if possible inbound andoutbound.<BR><BR> I have 3 models, summit 200 with ExtremeWare (7.6 and 7.7), X250 andx450 with ExtremeOS (12).<BR><BR> In the ExtremeWare i use this:<BR><BR><SPAN class=875110408-13072006><FONT size=+0><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>create access-mask RATELIMIT ports precedence1000<BR>create rate-limit <port_name> RATELIMIT port <port_number>permit limit <mbps> exceed-actiondrop<BR></FONT></FONT></SPAN><BR> But this is no efficient and there is no real rate-limiting in theport and cause more damage than help.<BR><BR> Can anybody help me to rate-limiting a port??<BR><BR> Thanks in advance.<BR><BR><BR><HR>_______________________________________________extreme-nsp mailing listextreme-nsp@puck.nether.nethttps://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/extreme-nsp</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><BR><br><br><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td bgcolor="#000000"><img src="https://img.web.de/p.gif" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" /></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family:verdana; font-size:12px; line-height:17px;">In 5 Schritten zur eigenen Homepage.
