Port Policers
This page provides an overview of QoS Ingress Port Policers for all switch ports. Port Policing is useful in
constraining traffic flows and marking frames above specific rates. Policing is mainly used for data flows and
voice or video flows because voice and video usually maintain a steady rate of traffic.

5.
