Description
The rate-limit input command allows you to specify the profile for rate limiting by
specifying IP ACLs, the rate limit, and the action to be performed if the rate limit is
reached. You then use the rate-limit apply command to apply the rate limit to an IP
interface.
Parameters
<name>
The name of the rate limit.
input acl <acl list>

command disregards the permit/deny keywords in the ACL rule definition,
however, it does look at all parameters in the ACL rule.

The rate limit, in bps, for the flow. This value can be between 1 and 1000000000.
exceed-action <action>
The action to be taken if the rate limit is reached. Specify one of the following
keywords:
