7705 SAR fabric profiles

General Information

Each daughter card in a 7705 SAR can have two assigned fabric profiles, one for access ingress and one for network ingress. These policies are assigned from the Daughter Card tab of a daughter card slot properties form.

A 7705 SAR fabric profile includes a mode, which cannot be changed after profile creation, and one or more shaping rates. The mode types are Aggregate and Destination. In Aggregate mode, one rate defines the maximum fabric shaping rate that is distributed to each daughter card slot. In Destination mode, there is one fabric shaping rate for each daughter card slot.

In Destination mode, there is also a multi-point shaping rate that is distributed to each daughter card slot.
