Hi Stefan
Policing will drop all traffic exceeding 5Mbps ( I assume u added 2
extra zeros by accident :-))
Shaping will try to queue(buffer) any extra traffic exceeding 5Mb and
try to send at the configured rate i.e 5Mbps
So if you send traffic at 5.5 Mb ps, yr first policy will drop all the
excess .5 Mb traffic
The second policy will try to buffer this extra .5 Mb traffic and smooth
out the flow to 5Mbps.
Remember shaping makes sense only when u have multiple flows with
varying traffic rates.
Thanks
Rohan

Subject: Police vs gts simple but important question
I already heared that GTS and two rate policing are just different thing
and we can't compare them. To clarify this could you please commend the
difference between both policy-maps. What each does and the difference:
1: policy-map SHAPE
class class-default
shape average 5000000 160000 80000
2. policy-map SHAPE2
class class-default
police cir 500000000 160000 80000
Thanks,
