Policing: How to Set the Burst Size?
Too small: And policer drops due to burstiness inherent in all
•
networks
Too large: And the entire transfer fits in the burst (especially for TCP)
•
Small burst size [n*max pkt size] ok for video, voice
•
Larger burst needed for TCP: 2 x [RTT * rate], good starting point
•
Must evaluate how UDP traffic will react to a packet drop
•
Right answer depends on the network

Starting with IOS release 12.1.19EW1 and

length when determining the policing rate and burst, otherwise
"underpolicing" would result, particularly for smaller packet sizes in the 64
