6.5.5 Egress Rate Limiting (Leaky Bucket)
For egress rate limiting, the leaky bucket algorithm is used on each output priority queue. For each
output port, the bandwidth that is used by each priority queue can be limited. If any egress queue
receives packets faster than the specified egress rate, packets will be accumulated in the packet
memory. After the memory is used, packet dropping or flow control will be triggered.
Note: Egress rate limiting occurs before the Transmit Priority Queue Servicing, such that a lower
priority queue will be serviced if a higher priority queue is being rate limited.
The egress limiting is enabled per priority queue. After a packet is selected to be sent, its length is
recorded. The switch then waits a programmable amount of time, scaled by the packet length, before
servicing that queue once again. The amount of time per byte is programmed into the Buffer Manager
Egress Rate registers (refer to Section 13.3.4.14 through Section 13.3.4.19 for detailed register
definitions). The value programmed is in approximately 20 nS per byte increments. Typical values are
listed in Table 6.5. When a port is transmitting at 10 Mbps, any setting above 39 has the effect of not
limiting the rate.

6.5.6 Adding, Removing, and Changing VLAN Tags
Based on the port configuration and the received packet formation, a VLAN tag can be added to,
removed from, or modified in a packet. There are four received packet type cases: non-tagged, priority-
tagged, normal-tagged, and CPU special-tagged. There are also four possible settings for an egress
port: dumb, access, hybrid, and CPU. In addition, each VLAN table entry can specify the removal of
the VLAN tag (the entry’s un-tag bit).
