Aggregate policers apply the bandwidth limits specified in an aggregate policer cumulatively to all matched traffic flows. This type of policer is configured by specifying the aggregate policer name within a policy map by using the police aggregate policy-map configuration command. Specify the bandwidth limits of the policer by using the mls QoS aggregate-policer global configuration command. In this way, the aggregate policer is shared by multiple classes of traffic within a policy-map.

The operation of an aggregate policer is demonstrated, as shown in Figure .
