Traffic metering: determine the color for the current packet (green, > yellow, red) based on history maintained by the MTR object. Supported > algorithms: srTCM (RFC 2697), trTCM (RFC 2698 and RFC 4115). > 2. Policing (per meter output color actions): re-color the packet (keep > or change the meter output color) or drop the packet. > 3. Statistics > 4.
