Is there a show command which displays the number of dropped packets by policer?
A. The show qos statistics aggregate-policer and show qos statistics l3stats commands display the number of dropped packets by policer. Q. I would like to use Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to modify a policer so that the rate and burst parameters can be changed dynamically. For example, by time of day. Is this possible? If so, what MIB is used? A. Yes, SNMP supports the CISCO-QOS-PIB-MIB and CISCO-CAR-MIB. Q. Is it possible to implement time-of-day-based QoS—specifically, to modify the maximum and burst rates—through Cisco IOS software on the Multilayer Switch Feature Card (MSFC) in hybrid mode? If possible, is this QoS done in hardware and not by the MSFC processor? A. No, this cannot be done. In hybrid mode (CatOS), all QoS policing is done by the supervisor. Q. I did not see a description of how the policer rate and policer burst values are implemented. I would like to complete technical documentation on these, so that I can understand the impact that they have on my net
