The direction of the multicast traffic is one. What happens when the
threshold is reached is another. Also you can specify a "falling
threshold" with storm-control. Just to name a few of the many.

As a side note you should also hardcode the speed of the interface since
you are using a percentage of the interface's speed.

Subject: limiting mcast traffic

Hi guys,
 
I need to limit mcast traffic to 1mbps on int fa0/3.
 
Look at this config:
 
interface FastEthernet0/3
 no switchport
 ip address 141.1.37.7 255.255.255.0
 ip pim sparse-mode
 ip multicast rate-limit out 1000
 storm-control multicast level 1.00
 
 
What's the difference, if any, between the last 2 commands?
 
Are they 100% redundant or is there some subtle difference I'm not aware
of?
 
TIA, Tim
