Percentage-Based Policing and Shaping: This feature provides the capability to configure Traffic
Policing and traffic shaping based on a percentage of bandwidth available on the interface by using the
police (percent) and shape (percent) commands.
Color-Aware Policer: The Color-Aware Policer feature is a method of Traffic Policing using an enhanced
"color-aware" technique. The packet color classification is based on packet-matching criteria defined for
two user-specified traffic classes??”the conform-color class and the exceed-color class. These two traffic
classes are created using the conform-color command, and the metering rates are defined using the
police command. This feature is not available on all platforms. Use Feature Navigator to check platform
and IOS support.
Configuring Traffic Policing is similar to configuring MQC, as described in the previous section. The tasks of
configuring each of the Traffic Policing features that are listed previously are essentially the same; that is, you
configure by using the MQC (as shown in the previous section) to create a class-map and policy-map. Then,
using the police command, you configure the various traffic-policing features previously discussed under a
specific class within that policy-map, as shown in Figure 7-7, and attach the policy-map to the interface.
