Hi There,
We are an ISP and have an interconnect with say Provider A. Customers of ours use Provider A for layer 2 and us for Layer 3 (IP/Internet).
Customer #1 to #100 --- (10Mb) --> Provider A ---> ISP ---> Internet
We'd like to rate limit some customers to 2mb/sec (in/out) on our end because at present they have a 10mb/sec connection coming from Provider A.
The config we use to peer with Provider A is this:
interface GigabitEthernet0/1.120
description Interconnect with Provider A
bandwidth 400000
encapsulation dot1Q 120
ip address A.B.C.1 255.255.255.252
Customers of ours are simply routed out through this interface like so:
Customer #1:
ip route W.X.Y.Z. 255.255.255.255 A.B.C.2
Customer #2:
ip route J.K.L.M 255.255.255.255 A.B.C.2
Is there a way to rate limit both these customers without needing to create a separate class map for each like so:
class-map match-all CUSTOMER-1-2MB
match access-group name ACL-CUSTOMER-1
class-map match-all CUSTOMER-2-2MB
match access-group name ACL-CUSTOMER-2
!
policy-map POLICY-RATE-LIMIT
class CUSTOMER-1-2MB
police 2000000 375000 750000
class CUSTOMER-2-2MB
police 2000000 375000 750000
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1.120
service-policy input POLICY-RATE-LIMIT
service-policy output POLICY-RATE-LIMIT
I've done this in the lab and I know it works, so Customer #1 ends up with 2mb/sec and Customer #2 gets 2mb/sec too.
But in production, I'm talking about 100's of customers which we simply route out of this interface. I can't imagine having to configure 100's of class maps and policy maps for each customer to rate limit them to 2mb/sec like in the config above.
Is there a better way to do this on the router???
Thanks.
Andy
