Configuring an Aggregate Policer

You can configure a single aggregated policer to limit traffic on the same interface without the use of multiple instances of the same policer. Instead of policing each address family individually on an interface, you can aggregate policing with one policer. This single aggregated policer is also known as the logical-interface policer.

To configure a logical-interface policer, include the logical-interface-policer statement at the [edit firewall policer policer-name] hierarchy level:

logical-interface-policer;

You can configure rate limiting on the logical-interface policer. For information on configuring rate limiting, see Configuring Rate Limiting. You can configure a policer action for the logical-interface policer. For information on configuring policy actions, see Configuring a Policer Action.

After configuring the aggregated logical-interface policer, you can apply the policer to an interface. To apply an aggregated logical-interface policer, include the policer policer-name option at the [edit interfaces interface-name unit 0 family family-name] hierarchy level:

policer policer-name;

For more information about applying policers, see the JUNOS Class of Service Configuration Guide.
