Cabletron Rate Policing Config Table

1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.1.2.14.7.1.3

This table allows configuration of rate policing rules on this device. Their are a limited number of resources available for rate policing, and this directly limits the number of rate policing rules that may be configured on each port. As a result this table does not support dynamic row creation, rather, all possible rows exist in either an active or disabled state. A manager application should not, however, infer that this configuration is necessarily fixed during the lifetime of the managed entity. The allocation of resources could theoretically be shifted. For example port 20 could have 3 resources and at some point suddenly have 4 or 2. Any such change would of course cause the value of ctRatePolicingConfigLastChange to change. At this time their is no defined mechanism to move these resources and there very likely never will be. This is merely a warning that manager applications should not count on this.
