Pluk,

If the task is expressed In bit only then you should /8 to convert it to
bytes (8 bits  1 byte

), that would be BC or BE, now if the task tells you that is in bit per
second, that would be

the CIR

R3(config-pmap-c)#police ?

  <8000-2000000000> Bits per second

R3(config-pmap-c)#police 8000 ?

  <1000-512000000> Burst bytes

Sorry if I could not give more detail, Its almost 6 am and my shift is
almost ending

Victor.-

Hi Victor,

I'm sorry to interrupt this conversation. This is quit clear, but where I'm
confused is that sometimes a task describes the normal burst (bc) in bits,
and sometimes in bps. In the router this burst is asked in bits (or bytes).
How do you map the bps to bits?

Hi HaDucBinh,

"Bc is just the depth of the bucket used for the policing algorithm. It is
not an extra amount of traffic that can be continually sent."

That being said, 16000 Bytes should be allowed to be sent in a Burst, that
mean, if you only send 1 packet (Pkt) of 16000 Bytes packet that packet is
marked as Green, or if I send 2 Pkts in T=0 and both equal to 16000 Bytes in

Size, they still conform. But if 1 pkt is greater or equal to 16001 the
packet is marked as red and ends in /dev/null by default. You can do also
other actions.

Policing calculations are driven by Pkt arrival times.
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios123/123tcr/123tq
r//qos_o1gt.htm#wp1084420

That means that the system would add Tokens to the Bucket using the
following formula (time between packets <which is equal to T - T1> * policer
rate)/8 bytes

If I send a Pkt of 16000 bytes in sec 0 then I would consume all Bytes in
The Token Bucket, so I have to wait almost nothing because you have
configured a Higher Cir, which would be replenish of Tokens very quick

For example if I have configure this cir 8000 bps, bc 1000 bytes in one
router, I would add 8000/8 worth token into the Token Bucket if T=1
That means if I send a Pkt of (996 + all the headers) in time 0 and then
wait for 1 sec and send the other both would be marker as green

So I almost have to wait like 1 sec and a little bit to allow another pkt
with a 1000 bytes of Size (or a burst of small packets in that time and with
a total weight of 1000 bytes)

As you can see here, there is a direct relation between the CIR configured,
the BC Value and the Time the Pkt arrives

I hope this make much sense now, there is a lots of fun in Policing using
RFC 2697 and 2698, and the key here is to remember that both are metering
systems that helps us keep the contracted CIR over a long Run.

Victor.-

Asunto: Police QoS

Dear group!

I'm configuring QoS and confusing about "police" command in MQC policy-map,
the command like this:

Policy Map POLICY_85

class class-default

  police 1000000 16000 exceed-action drop

I don't understand deeply the number 16000 what does it mean?

Could I use another number? For example: police 1000000 24000 exceed-action
drop

Please explain me!

Thanks!
