Configuring Types of Actions for Rate-Limit Actions for External Parent Groups (SRC CLI)

Before you configure the various types of actions, configure the rate limit or parent group (for rate-limit hierarchies) that is to include the actions. See:

• Configuring Rate-Limit Actions for External Parent Groups (SRC CLI)
• Configuring Hierarchical Rate-Limit Actions (SRC CLI)

Use the following configuration statements to configure rate-limit actions from the [edit policies external-parent-group-folder name external-parent-group name ] hierarchy level:

• Specify an action for a rate-limit action or a rate-limit hierarchy:

  Note: The following examples show the configuration for a committed action. You can configure the same actions for committed actions, conformed actions, and exceed actions.

  • Filter (drop packet).
    [edit policies external-parent-group-folder external parent group epg1 rate-limit]user@host# set committed-action filter
  • Forward.
    [edit policies external-parent-group-folder external parent group epg1 rate-limit]user@host# set committed-action forward
  • (For rate-limit hierarchies only) Forward conditionally.
    [edit policies external-parent-group-folder external parent group epg1 rate-limit]user@host# set committed-action forward-conditional
  • (Rate-limit hierarchies only for committed and conformed actions) Forward unconditionally.
    [edit policies external-parent-group-folder external parent group epg1 rate-limit]user@host# set committed-action forward-unconditional
  • (For rate-limit hierarchies only) Forward and exit from the rate-limit hierarchy.
    [edit policies external-parent-group-folder external parent group epg1 rate-limit]user@host# set committed-action forward-final
  • Mark. If you select mark, enter the mark values.
    [edit policies external-parent-group-folder external parent group epg1 rate-limit]user@host# edit committed-action mark mark-info [edit policies external-parent-group-folder external parent group epg1 rate-limit committed-action mark mark-info]user@host# set value value [edit policies external-parent-group-folder external parent group epg1 rate-limit committed-action mark mark-info]user@host# set mask mask

    Make sure that masks configured with a rate-limit action are the same for different mark actions.

  • Parameter. Before you assign a parameter, you must create a parameter of the packetOperation type and commit the parameter configuration.
    [edit policies external-parent-group-folder external parent group epg1 rate-limit committed-action]user@host# set committed-action parameter action action
