# Enabling ATM Cell Mode

When you configure a rate limit profile to account for ATM cell tax, the forwarding code calculates this information to determine the size of a frame instead of using only the frame size.

- Issue the atm-cell-mode command to account for the ATM cell tax in statistics and rate calculations:
  host1(config-policy-list)#atm-cell-mode

Use the show rate-limit-profile command to display the state of the mode.
