Make sure you use the keyword "interface-specific" in the firewall
filter. This creates a different instance for each policer bound in a
direction. Otherwise one instance is created in a direction and the
policer considers all traffic from those interfaces and contributes them
to the policer.

lab@aurora# show firewall filter foo
interface-specific;
policer foo1 {
     if-exceeding {
         bandwidth-limit 100m;
         burst-size-limit 2m;
     }
     then discard;
}
