Hi, I think that instead of mandating either a single rate limiter per router or one per interface for locally originated ICMP traffic, the specification should be loosened up to allow either.
Multiplying the ICMP rate a node originates by the number of interfaces should not make much of a difference operationally, and if a router has many interfaces it also has more paths to spread this traffic over. On the other hand, for a strictly software based router, having to implement a rate limiter per interface is probably unneeded additional complexity. Therefore, I think mandating one or the other method would be unwise.
