Narbik,
No problem. Just some miscommunication. Whether it be the vendos bad tasks
or my thick head. At this point I have put in too much time, effort, and
money to let anything discourage me for more than 10 seconds, if that . Being
frustrated is the norm for me. The truly sad part is I need glasses so bad I
skimmed right by the part in the doc cd that I as looking for and thus led me
to ask the question. I got more info than I was looking for so it's all good

John,
I was NOT trying to tell you that you are asking stupid questions, i am
trying to tell you NOT to be discouraged by some of the vague questions that
some of the vendors put together, a question like that does not tell you much,
I thought that you knew the difference between shaping and policing and you
were trying to get a clue on the question.
Some of these vendors will purposely get students all messed up to draw them
into their classes, i doubt very much that you or anyone else will get a vague
question like that. I am sorry if i offended you, i did not mean to do that, i
was trying to make sure that you were not discouraged.
Unicast me if you need more help.

Paul,
It was purposly ambigious. I'm going through qos and some things are not
quite clear. I understand there are various forms of rate-limiting one rate,
two rate, two paint, treee paint etc. I'm also trying to pick up clues as to
what a task is asking me ie "shape the average rate", "limit protocol to to
xKbs", which are easy clues. I'm reading the config guide and various RFC's
now, but that doesn't mean I won't get confused sometimes.

Hi John,
Shaping and policing are not the same beast. In addition there are a
number of policing methods to choose from, and they also operate differently
from each other.
Your question does not include any information which suggests the use of
one over the other. Based on that you could use either, but the question
would normally indicate to you which to use.
The doc cd has some good information explaining the differences in the
various commands.
Paul.

What a great point!!! Thanks for the help. Maybe one day I'll be
able to
point out peoples ignorance of a subject by calling their questions "
ridiculous", instead of trying to clarify them. I guess that's easier
than
not replying.
Again thanks

Lets take a very ambigouis question. Make sure traffic on int x

Intx
traffic shape rate 256000 32000 0

rate-limit 256000 32000 32000 conform transmit exceed drop
I'm pretty sure I'm missing something to me these are the same
