This chapter includes:
â– Rate-Limiting: Enables a port to limit the amount of bandwidth a user
or device may utilize for traffic on the switch.
Note In earlier releases, all traffic rate-limiting applied to inbound traffic only,
and was specified as a percentage of total bandwidth. Beginning with
software release K.12.xx or later, it is also possible to configure outbound
rate-limiting for all traffic on a port, and specify bandwidth usage in terms
of bits per second (bps).
â– Guaranteed Minimum Bandwidth (GMB): Provides a method for
ensuring that each of a port’s outbound queues has a specified minimum
consideration for sending traffic out on the link to another device.
â– Jumbo Frames: Enables ports operating at 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps speeds to
accept inbound frames of up to 9220 bytes when configured for jumbo
traffic.
