Rate-limit command not available

[mktck]

Hi there, I have a Cisco 1700 series router running Cisco IOS Software Release 12.3(8)T. I have been trying to configure Rate-limiting but it seems that this IOS do not have the command. I am able to configure Packet-shape but now need to limit incoming packets to 1MB. From what I read here, it seems Rate-limit command has been available since IOS 12.2 or even earlier.

Can some pro please advise?

Hello
Please confirm that you are applying the rate-limit under the interface.If it doesn't this means that cisco has abbondon the command for some platforms and IOS because they want people to use the MQC style.Try the below conf:

policy-map TEST
class class-default
police 1000000

interface ???????? 0/0
ip address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX 255.255.255.252
service-policy output TEST
or ----------------Depends on traffic direction.
service-policy input TEST

Hi, thanks for replying. Now this is another problem, there is no police command as well.

Only the following command exist:

router(config-pmap-c)#?
QoS policy-map class configuration commands:
bandwidth Bandwidth
drop Drop all packets
exit Exit from QoS class action configuration mode
fair-queue Enable Flow-based Fair Queuing in this Class
netflow-sampler NetFlow action
no Negate or set default values of a command
priority Strict Scheduling Priority for this Class
queue-limit Queue Max Threshold for Tail Drop
random-detect Enable Random Early Detection as drop policy
service-policy Configure Flow Next
set Set QoS values
shape Traffic Shaping
<cr>

And also, when i attempt to apply the policy, it states that it cannot be applied on an incoming interface.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Hello
Just notice that you have a standard "IP" version of the IOS.Try to get at least an IP PLUS version.I have a cisco 1751 with "advance Ent."And it does support the rat-limit command.
As far as the Police command goes.Yes there's that logic,you can't limit traffic coming into a routers interface because the router can't tell the switch or workstation how much it must send.
