Table 3-11 Rate Limiting Configuration Sets Elements

Field (* indicates a required field)	Description	Data Input Notes
Rate Limiting Configuration Set Name	Unique name of the Rate Limiting Configuration Set.	Case-sensitive string: alphanumeric and underscore (_); must contain at least one alpha and cannot begin with a digit. Range: 1 - 32 characters
* Maximum Egress Request Rate	The maximum allowed Egress Request Rate shared by associated members.	Format: numeric Range: 100 - 250000 Default: 6000
* Onset Threshold Level 1 (%)	When Egress Request Rate exceeds this percentage of maximum Egress Request Rate, the Congestion Level is set to 1. Onset Threshold Level 1 is ignored if ETG Mode is Limit.	Format: numeric Range: 2 - 100 Default: 60
* Abatement Threshold Level 1 (%)	When Egress Request Rate falls below this percentage of maximum Egress Request Rate, the Congestion Level is set to 0. Abatement Threshold Level 1 is ignored if ETG Mode is Limit.	Format: numeric Range: 1 - 100 Default: 55
Onset Threshold Level 2 (%)	When Egress Request Rate exceeds this percentage of maximum Egress Request Rate, the Congestion Level is set to 2. Onset Threshold Level 2 is ignored if ETG Mode is Limit.	Format: numeric Range: 4 - 100 Default: none
Abatement Threshold Level 2 (%)	When Egress Request Rate falls below this percentage of maximum Egress Request Rate, the Congestion Level is set to 1. Abatement Threshold Level 2 is ignored if ETG Mode is Limit.	Format: numeric Range: 3 - 100 Default: none
Onset Threshold Level 3 (%)	When Egress Request Rate exceeds this percentage of maximum Egress Request Rate, the Congestion Level is set to 3. Onset Threshold Level 3 is ignored if ETG Mode is Limit.	Format: numeric Range: 6 - 100 Default: none
Abatement Threshold Level 3 (%)	When Egress Request Rate falls below this percentage of maximum Egress Request Rate, the Congestion Level is set to 2. Abatement Threshold Level 3 is ignored if ETG Mode is Limit.	Format: numeric Range: 5 - 100 Default: none
* Convergence Time (msec)	The time it takes in milliseconds to converge on a per second rate. If the convergence time is less than 1000 milliseconds, the rate is extrapolated. If the convergence time is greater than 1000 milliseconds, the rate is averaged. The rate convergence time is the amount of time it takes for the measured rate to converge on the actual rate.	Format: List Range: 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 4000 Default: 250
* Abatement Time (msec)	The amount of time in milliseconds that the Egress Request Rate must remain below an abatement threshold before the Congestion Level is lowered.	Format: numeric Range: 50 - 10000 Default: 50
