Hello,

    Thank you for the response.

    Can I ask you - you stated the proposed filter config matches on 0/0
and thus would (try and die!) to create 2^32 individual policers, but
thats what I thought this did:


filter per-user {
    term max-per-user {
        from {
            source-address {
                0.0.0.0/0;
            }
            destination-prefix-list {
                my100mbps-endusers;
            }
        }
        then prefix-action per-user-100mbps;
    }

Are you saying that potentially I'm allowing the creation of individual
policers for each possible ipv4 address to every single one of my
destination-prefix-list members? All I am really trying to say is police
by destination address only. If you can suggest a modification here, I'd
appreciate it.


Thank you.
