About this task

To enable the per-SAP egress aggregate meter command, perform the following steps.

Note:

Step 1 applies only to the 7210 SAS-R6 and 7210 SAS-R12.

Ensure that port-scheduling-mode is enabled on the node by doing the following:
- Use the show system global-res-profile active command to display the current scheduling mode for the node. The port-scheduler-mode should be displayed as ‟enable”.
- If the port-scheduler-mode is ‟disable”, use the configure system global-res-profile qos port-scheduler-mode command to enable it.
The following output displays the port-scheduler-mode status.
```

```
Allocate resources to the feature using the configure system resource-profile egress-internal-tcam egress-sap-aggregate-meter command. If necessary, free up resources for use by this feature by removing resources from other features.
Configure the SAP-egress aggregate meter rate using the configure service vpls sap egress aggregate-meter-rate rate-in-kbps [burst burst-in-kbits] [enable-stats] command

Note:
Use the enable-stats parameter to enable the counter that is used to count total forwarded packets out of the SAP.
