What is ATM Traffic Policing?
A. ATM Traffic Policing is the means by which ATM network administrators can enforce penalties on user traffic that does not conform to the traffic contract purchased for the service categories ABR, CBR, UBR, VBR-nrt, and VBR-rt. The administrators have to configure the ATM switches that comprise the path of the circuit to either tag, change ATM header CLP-bit to 1, or drop cells transmitted at a rate that does not conform to the parameters of the service type. Refer to Traffic Policing and Configuring and Traffic Policing Point-to-Multipoint PVC Connections on LightStream 1010, Catalyst 8510MSR and Catalyst 8540MSR Switches for more detailed information on ATM Traffic Policing.
