qos rcv-queue multicast rate-limit

Configures a cap on the maximum rate for multicast packet expansion. 

Synopsis

qos rcv-queue multicast rate-limit rate [burst burst-size]

no qos rcv-queue multicast rate-limit

Operands

Specifies the maximum rate for multicast packet expansion in units of 
packets per second (pkt/s). This places a cap on the sum of the first level 
expansion, for example the ingress packets replicated for each egress switch 
plus the second level expansion, for example packets replicated for egress 
interfaces on the switch. The range of valid values is 5500-90000000  pkt/s. 

burst burst-size

Configures a cap on the maximum burst size for multicast packet expansion, 
for example packet replication. The burst size represents the maximum 
number of multicast packet expansion that can be performed back-to-back 
as a single burst in units of packets (pkt). The range of valid values is 
50-65535 pkt.

Defaults

The default burst size is 4096 packets. The default rate value is 3000000pkt/s.

Description

Use this command to configures a cap on the maximum rate for multicast packet expansion, for 
example packet replication. This rate limit is applied uniformly across the entire system. This rate 
limit is enforced independently by each switch. Use the no qos rcv-queue multicast rate-limit 
command to return the multicast packet expansion rate limit to the default settings.

Usage

Guidelines

There are no usage guidelines for this command.

Examples

To lower the maximum multicast packet expansion rate to 10000pkt/s:

switch(config)#qos rcv-queue multicast rate-limit 10000

To return the system to the default multicast packet expansion rate limit values: 

switch(config)#no qos rcv-queue multicast rate-limit
