How to Schedule speed rates on M4352

On M4300 switches - What is the best way to Reduce Port(user) Data rates from 1Gb to 10Mbps  on every Saturday at 10pm. ?   Not sure if scheduling/management exists for this or if a workaround is available ?

    Hi WireJunkie,

     

    You can go to page 161 of the user manual here to configure Timer Schedules and then configure an ACL in which you can check on page 617.

     

    WIth this, you can set Rate Limit Conform Data Rate to 10240, Rate Limit Burst Size to 128, and Time Range to the one you just configured.

    Afterwards, you'll have to bind that to an interface which you can check on page 632.

     

     

    Regards,

      That helped, Thank you!   Can you explain what Rate Limit Conform Data Rate does?    and the same for Rate Limit Burst Size 1 versus 64 versus 128 ?  Lastly  what happens when the Rate Limit conform data rate is exceeded by clients, will the packets be dropped or queued?
