guaranteed-rate

Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

For Gigabit Ethernet IQ, Channelized IQ PICs, Multiservices and Services PICs FRF.16 LSQ interfaces, and EQ DPCs only, configure a guaranteed minimum rate. You can also configure an optional burst size for a logical interface on EQ DPCs and on IQ2 and IQ2E PICs. This can help to ensure that higher priority services do not starve lower priority services.

Default

If you do not include this statement and you do not include the delay-buffer-rate statement, the logical interface receives a minimal delay-buffer rate and minimal bandwidth equal to 2 MTU-sized packets.

Options

percent percentage

For LSQ interfaces, guaranteed rate as a percentage of the available interface bandwidth.

  • Range: 1 through 100 percent

rate

For IQ and IQ2 interfaces, guaranteed rate, in bits per second (bps). You can specify a value in bits per second either as a complete decimal number or as a decimal number followed by the abbreviation k (1000), m (1,000,000), or g (1,000,000,000).

  • Range: 1000 through 6,400,000,000,000 bps

    Note:

    Through Junos OS Release 13.3, the upper limit is 160,000,000,000 bps. Beginning with Junos OS Release 14.1, the upper limit is 6,400,000,000,000 bps.

burst-size bytes

(Optional) Maximum burst size, in bytes.
