Rate shaping overview
On FastIron X Series devices, the configured outbound rate shaper (651 Kbps) on port 1/15 is
the maximum rate of outbound traffic that is sent out on that port, since 651 Kbps is a
multiple of 651 Kbps. The configured 1300 Kbps limit on port 14 is rounded up to 1302 Kbps.
On Brocade FCX Series devices, the configured outbound rate shaper (651 Kbps) on port 1/15
is the rounded to 616 Kbps. The configured 1300 Kbps limit on port 14 is rounded to 1232
Kbps.
Syntax: [no] rate-limit output shaping ethernet <port> <value>
Specify the port variable in one of the following formats:
FWS, FCX, and ICX stackable switches – stack-unit/slotnum/portnum
FSX 800 and FSX 1600 chassis devices – slotnum/portnum
ICX devices – slotnum/portnum
FESX compact switches – portnum
Displaying rate shaping configurations
To display the configured outbound rate shaper on a device, enter the show rate-limit
output-shaping command.
The display lists the ports on a device, the configured outbound rate shaper on a port and for a
priority for a port.
