Can i manage bandwidth for a VLAN, I mean can i fix a Bandwidth on VLAN, e.g,

If i apply 250Kbps for a VLAN 101 , evry client shared this bandwidth, if total customer in VLAN 100 is 10, each use 25Kbps bandwidth .

Thank You.

Hi there,

Yes you can do this, but you would do it in QoS. In the class-map you would match on either the vlan or the IP address and then in the policy-map, you would shape to 250k on the egress ports on the box

That would sort it.

Thank You for a response,

I have a 3550(VTP mode Server) where all VLANs are established, and other 2950(VTP Mode Client) are connected with this 3550 Switch, If i developed a policy of 250Kbps on a 3550 accross a VLAN will it start to work ?

Hey there,

Yes it will - providing you've got the layer 3 functionality. In the class map, match on either the vlan or ref. an access list and grab the network range. The other vlans/networks will not be referenced and will take as much bandwidth as they can (as per normal)

Mansoor,

Which switch do you have. Cat45K and 65K supports vlan rate limiting. Please see the link below:

HTH, Please rate if it does.
