ASA RateLimit ACL ?

[pelitti]

Hi,

i have an asa5501.

I need to perform this:

limit traffic on an interface (C class subnet) in some hours.

Actualy i perform this by a 2611 router, with command rate-limit ..ACL ...., but i can't perform with schedule, i have only 'fixed' limit.

Any idea ??

Thank you,

Mauro

On the ASA you can schedule ACE's to be active during specific time periods.

Create the Time range and then apply the time range to the ACE.

This should help.

Thank you.

With ACL i can identify the intressing traffic in hours, but how can i match this acl with traffc limit??

Must i use QOS ?

Thank you,

You can use the class-map command to match the traffic in your ACL to identify the traffic for QoS policy-map.

class-map map_name

match access-list acl_name

This link should help.
