Dynamic Port Admission Bandwidth Control
You can configure the system to dynamically limit the total multicast bandwidth that can be admitted on a port. The system performs dynamic port-level admission control when an OIF on that port is added to the mroute for a given <S, G> multicast stream.
After the priority bandwidth limit on the port is reached, OIFs on the prioritized <S, G> are only allowed to forward the traffic and unprioritized <S, G> streams are blocked from forwarding data on the OIF.
To enable a priority value for the <S, G> multicast stream, issue the set priority command in the multicast bandwidth map. A priority value of 0 indicates an unprioritized stream and any value other than 0 indicates a prioritized stream. Currently there is no support for classification of prioritized streams.
You can configure limits for the bandwidth that is dynamically admitted on the port. The priority bandwidth limit controls the priority bandwidth admitted on a port. The hysteresis limit sets the minimum priority bandwidth limit before the system evaluates mroutes and admits any blocked OIFs.
