rate-interval (Configuration Mode)
Configure the traffic sampling interval for all physical and logical port-channel interfaces globally. The support to configure
rate-interval globally enables you to modify the default interval rate for all physical and logical interfaces at one time.
Syntax
rate-interval seconds
Use the no rate-interval command to remove the sampling interval configuration.
Parameters
seconds
Enter the number of seconds for which to collect traffic data. The range is from 5
to 299 seconds.
NOTE: Because polling occurs every 15 seconds, the number of seconds
designated here round to the multiple of 15 seconds lower than the entered
value. For example, if 44 seconds is designated, it rounds to 30; 45 to 59
seconds rounds to 45. If you configure this value to be less than 5, then the
entire buffer is cleared; the show int stats command shows the rate
information to be 0 as the polling interval is less than 5.
Defaults 299 seconds

Version Description
9.11.0.0 Introduced on all Dell EMC Networking OS platforms.
Usage
Information
The output of the show interfaces command displays the configured rate interval, along with the
collected traffic data.
When rate-interval is not configured in the global configuration mode or interface mode, the default value
of 299 seconds is applied.
When rate-interval is configured only in the global configuration mode and not in the interface mode, the
global rate-interval value is applied at the interface level also.
When rate-interval is configured at the interface level and not in the global configuration mode, the
interface level rate-interval value is applied for an interface.
When rate interval is configured in both global configuration mode as well as interface mode, then the
rate-interval value configured at interface level is applied as it takes precedence over the global value.
show config
