Description
Reduces the possibility that policers configured
on the router might drop packets. For some Juniper Networks routers,
policers can mark packets as out-of-specification in accordance with
TCP. By default, these policers begin to randomly drop packets when
the current credit exceeds the credit limit. In the context of TCP,
this random drop mechanism helps to smooth the flow of traffic. The policer-drop-probability-low statement causes the policers
to operate as strict rate limiters and to ignore the standard TCP
behavior.
The policer-drop-probability-low statement
is applicable to the following routing platforms:
M7i
M10i
M120
M320
MX Series
