Does rate-limiting work like that? I thought that if the condition is met (i.e. the address is within the range specified in the ACL), the amount of bandwidth specified in the statement will be given on a case-by-case basis. Or does it truly divide the bandwidth amongst all who are allowed by the ACL? We once tried to simulate the throughput of a DS3 by creating a policy for rate-limiting on a 100 Mbps ethernet. Unfortunately, the machine running ttcp to generate the dummy traffic couldn't sustain 45 Mbps. I think they ultimately went with two machines, which resulted in more than 45 Mbps of traffic but less than 90 Mbps. I seem to recall that the policy ended up allowing *each* machine up to 45 Mbps - but I could be wrong. Unfortunately, the engineer responsible for that experiment has left for greener pastures. Anyone refresh my memory?
