Table 44: show rate-limit-profile Output Fields

Field Name | Field Description
--- | ---
Rate-Limit-Profile | Create a rate limit profile
Profile Name | Name of the rate-limit profile
Profile Type | One-rate, two-rate, or hierarchical profile
Reference count | Number of policy lists that reference this rate-limit profile
Color-aware | Color-aware action (yes or no) taken for profile
Committed rate | Target rate for the traffic, in bits per second
Committed burst | Amount of bandwidth allocated to accommodate bursty traffic, in bytes
Excess burst | Amount of bandwidth allocated to accommodate a packet in progress when the rate is in excess of the burst, in bytes
Peak rate | Amount of bandwidth allocated to accommodate traffic flow in excess of the committed rate, in bits per second
Peak burst | Amount of bandwidth allocated to accommodate bursty traffic in excess of the peak rate, in bytes
Mask | Value of mask applied to ToS byte in IP packet header
Committed rate action | Policy action (drop, transmit, or mark) taken when traffic flow does not exceed the committed rate
Conformed rate action | Policy action (drop, transmit, or mark) taken when traffic flow exceeds the committed rate but remains below the peak rate
Exceeded rate action | Policy action (drop, transmit, or mark) taken when traffic flow exceeds the peak rate
