Rate-Limit gives strange speeds

Asked by hyemar in Network Switches & Hubs, Data Hosting/Data Havens

Tags: ProCurve, rate-limit

Hi!

I'm trying to configure rate-limiting on my ProCurve 3500 switch. It supports inbound and outbound rate-limiting.

I'm setting the rate limit on a port like this:
ProCurve Switch 3500-24(eth-2)# rate-limit all in kbps 4096
ProCurve Switch 3500-24(eth-2)# rate-limit all out kbps 4096

Isn't this two lines supposed to give me 4Mbit in and out? I've performed several tests after configuring the rate-limits (to different sites), and it's only giving me 1Mbit out and 2-3 Mbit in. What am I doing wrong? Anny suggestions?
