cat3550/3560 per port traffic limiting.

srg

I got assigned to configure port traffic limiting on some 3550 and 3560s, and currently i dont have anything to lab with so i'll try asking here.

This could be done with policy-maps, right? I've googled around a bit and it seems to work for ingress and egress on the 3550, but just on the ingress on 3560?

I also found this img: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/153-2.gif which I guess says that it should work to match acls and police them ingress, but not egress.

Am I going the right way here?

You know, that actually got me pretty curious, i looked in my BCMSN book and it didn't say anything about it so i decided to ask some people around and these are replies i got:

: look for a ciscopress book named "End to End QOS"

: quickest dirtiest method I use is just tx/rx queues.

: there are several options, but they all will police/rate limit and not shape, which means packets will get dropped and sessions might suffer


Hope that helps, good question by the way!!
