<strong>Cisco</strong> <strong>Broadband</strong> <strong>Cable</strong> <strong>Command</strong> <strong>Reference</strong> <strong>Guide</strong><br />

Chapter 2 <strong>Cisco</strong> <strong>Cable</strong> Modem Termination System <strong>Command</strong>s<br />

To enable DOCSIS rate limiting on downstream traffic, use the cable downstream rate-limit command<br />

in cable interface configuration mode. To disable DOCSIS rate limiting on downstream traffic, use the<br />

no form of this command.<br />

cable downstream rate-limit [token-bucket [[shaping [granularity msec | max-delay msec]] |<br />

weighted-discard] [exp-weight]<br />

no cable downstream rate-limit<br />

Defaults In <strong>Cisco</strong> IOS Release 12.1 EC and earlier releases, the system defaults to monitoring the traffic to and<br />

from each CM over each 1-second period, and if the CM exceeds its bandwidth quota for that second,<br />

the CMTS drops packets for the rest of the second (no cable downstream rate-limit).<br />

In <strong>Cisco</strong> IOS Release 12.2 BC and later releases, the token-bucket and shaping keywords are on by<br />

default, and the max-delay option is set to 128 milliseconds (cable downstream rate-limit<br />

token-bucket shaping max-delay 128).<br />

<strong>Command</strong> Modes Interface configuration (cable interface only)<br />

<strong>Command</strong> History<br />

token-bucket (Optional) Specifies the token-bucket filter algorithm, which enforces<br />

an average long-term transmission rate while permitting occasional<br />

bursts.<br />

shaping (Optional) Enables rate limiting on the downstream port using the<br />

token-bucket policing algorithm with default traffic shaping<br />

parameters.<br />

granularity msec (Optional) Specifies traffic shaping granularity in milliseconds. Valid<br />

values are 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16 milliseconds.<br />

max-delay msec (Optional) Specifies the maximum traffic-shaping buffering delay in<br />

milliseconds. Valid values are 128, 256, 512, or 1028 milliseconds.<br />

weighted-discard (Optional) Specifies the weighted discard algorithm.<br />

exp-weight (Optional) Specifies the weight for the exponential moving average of<br />

loss rate. Valid values are from 1 to 4.<br />
