Multiple Flows Sharing a Rate Limit
Figure 4 shows an interface that has one rate limit and three classified flows, A, B,
and C. The combined traffic for A, B, and C must be below a peak rate of 4 Mbps,
but each individual flow can burst up to that amount. Statistics can be collected
separately on A, B, and C, while limiting only the aggregate of all three. None of the
flows has any preference in accessing the rate limit and the rate limit is shared on a
first-come first-serve basis.
Figure 4: Multiple Packet Flows Sharing a Rate Limit
This example uses committed and conformed actions for a preferred rate limit
profile so that the common rate limit drops only exceeded packets (those packets
that raise the traffic load above 4 Mbps); packets below 4 Mbps are transmitted. By
specifying classifier-group * parent-group all, all packets are sent to the parent
group. There is no individual rate limit so that those packet use any available,
unused bandwidth in the parent group rate limit.
