Configuring Policer Actions (C-Web Interface)
The policer action specifies rate and burst size limits and the action taken if a packet exceeds those limits. You can create policer actions in Junos OS policer and Junos OS filter policy rules.
Each policer action has a packet action. The packet action specifies the action taken on a packet that exceeds its rate limits. You configure packet actions within policer actions. There are four types of actions that you can configure:
- Filter—Packets are discarded.
- Forwarding class—Packets are assigned to the forwarding class that you specify.
- Loss priority—Packets are assigned the loss priority that you specify.
- Parameter—The action specified by the parameter is applied. Before you assign a parameter, you must create a parameter of type packetOperation and commit the parameter configuration.
To configure a policer action:
- In the side pane, select a Junos OS policer or Junos OS filter policy rule.
- From the Create new list, select Policer. Type a name for the action, and click OK.
- Enter information as described in the Help text in the main pane, and click Apply.
- From the Create new list for the policer action, select Packet Action. Type a name for the action, and click OK.
- Expand the packet action, and click on the type of packet action that you want to configure for this policer action.
- Click Create, enter information as described in the Help text in the main pane, and click Apply.
