I have no hands-on experience with M-series but is there any reason
you can't use traffic shaping to limit the transmit rate? ('set
interfaces ... shaping-rate 15m') It can't be tuned as much as the
equivalent function in IOS but unless you're trying to interoperate
with a particularly aggressive intermediate device, it should do the
job. We use it instead of egress policers on J and SRX, and we use it
in conjunction with schedulers, including a priority queue for voice.
My understanding is that it (the shaper) should introduce back
pressure/congestion when the interface reaches the specified transmit
rate.
Cheers,
Dale
