Actual rates in hardware

Currently, the actual rate in hardware is determined by a mapping based on the configured rate, shown by the following table of the first nine actual rates.

The Min-Max PPS values displayed in the following table are due to varying packet sizes. The size of the packets being sent will determine the observed minimum and maximum packets per second.

| Configured Rate (kbps) | Actual Rate in Hardware (kbps) | Min-Max PPS |
|------------------------|--------------------------------|-------------|
| 1-468                  | 468                            | 38-906      |
| 469-937                | 937                            | 77-1828     |
| 938-1406               | 1406                           | 115-2734    |
| 1407-1875              | 1875                           | 154-3656    |
| 1876-2343              | 2343                           | 192-4562    |
| 2344-2812              | 2812                           | 231-5484    |
| 2813-3281              | 3281                           | 270-6406    |
| 3282-3750              | 3750                           | 308-7312    |
| 3751-4218              | 4218                           | 347-8234    |

The preceding table shows the first nine actual rates available in hardware. Higher rates are available. The 'show copp-policy statistics class <CLASS>' command can be used to show the actual rate in hardware for a specific class. The 'show copp-policy <NAME>' command can be used to show the actual rates for all classes configured in a specific CoPP policy, if the policy is actively applied..
