An untested example that should set you out in search of the necessary doc: class-map match-all cm-src-specific match access-group name acl-src-specific ! interface Vlan99 service-policy input sp-rate-limit ! policy-map sp-rate-limit class cm-src-specific police flow mask src-only 1000000 4000 conform-action transmit exceed-action drop ! ip access-list extended acl-src-specific permit ip any any John
