Abstract

See full text

A network device configured to i) control a rate of traffic while operating in a rate-limiting mode, and ii) mirror traffic while operating a sampling mode. The network device includes an ingress circuit configured to receive packets, and a rate limiter in communication with the ingress circuit. The rate limiter is configured to, while the network device is operating in the rate-limiting mode, perform a rate-limiting scheme to control a rate of the packets received through the ingress circuit. The rate limiter is further configured to, while the network device is operating in the sampling mode, perform a modified form of the rate-limiting scheme to mirror the packets received through the ingress circuit.
