Example 
The following shows mirroring configured from port 6 to port 11:

This function allows the network manager to control the maximum rate 
for traffic transmitted or received on an interface. Rate limiting is 
configured on interfaces at the edge of a network to limit traffic into or out 
of the network. Traffic that falls within the rate limit is transmitted, while 
packets that exceed the acceptable amount of traffic are dropped.

Rate limiting can be applied to individual ports or trunks. When an 
interface is configured with this feature, the traffic rate will be monitored 
by the hardware to verify conformity. Non-conforming traffic is dropped, 
conforming traffic is forwarded without any changes.

Note: The “rate limit granularity” is multiplied by the “rate limit” 

(page 4-161) to set the actual rate limit for an interface. Granularity 
is a global setting that applies to Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet 
interfaces.
