Policing action in tc(8)                                               Linux                                              Policing action in tc(8)

NAME

       police - policing action

SYNOPSIS

       tc  ... action police rate RATE burst BYTES[/BYTES] [ mtu BYTES[/BYTES] ] [ peakrate RATE ] [ overhead BYTES ] [ linklayer TYPE ] [ CONTROL
               ]

       tc ... filter ... [ estimator SAMPLE AVERAGE ] action police avrate RATE [ CONTROL ]

       CONTROL := conform-exceed EXCEEDACT[/NOTEXCEEDACT

       EXCEEDACT/NOTEXCEEDACT := { pipe | ok | reclassify | drop | continue | goto chain CHAIN_INDEX }

DESCRIPTION

       The police action allows to limit bandwidth of traffic matched by the filter it is attached to. Basically there  are  two  different  algo-
       rithms available to measure the packet rate: The first one uses an internal dual token bucket and is configured using the rate, burst, mtu,
       peakrate, overhead and linklayer parameters. The second one uses an in-kernel sampling mechanism. It can be fine-tuned using the  estimator
       filter parameter.

OPTIONS

       rate RATE
              The maximum traffic rate of packets passing this action. Those exceeding it will be treated as defined by the conform-exceed option.

       burst BYTES[/BYTES]
              Set the maximum allowed burst in bytes, optionally followed by a slash ('/') sign and cell size which must be a power of 2.

       mtu BYTES[/BYTES]
              This is the maximum packet size handled by the policer (larger ones will be handled like they exceeded the configured rate). Setting
              this value correctly will improve the scheduler's precision.  Value formatting is identical to burst above. Defaults to unlimited.

       peakrate RATE
              Set the maximum bucket depletion rate, exceeding rate.

       avrate RATE
              Make use of an in-kernel bandwidth rate estimator and match the given RATE against it.

       overhead BYTES
              Account for protocol overhead of encapsulating output devices when computing rate and peakrate.

       linklayer TYPE
              Specify the link layer type.  TYPE may be one of ethernet (the default), atm or adsl (which are synonyms). It is used to  align  the
              precomputed rate tables to ATM cell sizes, for ethernet no action is taken.

       estimator SAMPLE AVERAGE
              Fine-tune  the  in-kernel  packet rate estimator.  SAMPLE and AVERAGE are time values and control the frequency in which samples are
              taken and over what timespan an average is built.

       conform-exceed EXCEEDACT[/NOTEXCEEDACT]
              Define how to handle packets which exceed or conform the configured bandwidth limit. Possible values are:

              continue
                     Don't do anything, just continue with the next action in line.

              drop   Drop the packet immediately.

              shot   This is a synonym to drop.

              ok     Accept the packet. This is the default for conforming packets.

              pass   This is a synonym to ok.

              reclassify
                     Treat the packet as non-matching to the filter this action is attached to and continue with the next filter in line (if any).
                     This is the default for exceeding packets.

              pipe   Pass the packet to the next action in line.

EXAMPLES

       A  typical  application  of the police action is to enforce ingress traffic rate by dropping exceeding packets. Although better done on the
       sender's side, especially in scenarios with lack of peer control (e.g. with dial-up providers) this is often the best one can do  in  order
       to  keep  latencies low under high load. The following establishes input bandwidth policing to 1mbit/s using the ingress qdisc and u32 fil-
       ter:

              # tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress
              # tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: u32 
                   match u32 0 0 
                   police rate 1mbit burst 100k

       As an action can not live on it's own, there always has to be a filter involved as link between qdisc and action. The  example  above  uses
       u32 for that, which is configured to effectively match any packet (passing it to the police action thereby).
