This HP 10500 Switch Series is receiving an average of 1 Gbps of HTTP traffic from 10.1.4.0/24. The switch
starts to receive an additional 1 Gbps of HTTP traffic from 10.1.4.0/24. How does the switch handle the traffic?

A.
It drops the traffic

B.
It forwards the traffic but marks it yellow (for a higher drop precedence)

C.
It forwards the traffic without remarking it in any way

D.
It forwards the traffic but marks it for forwarding in a lower priority queue

Explanation:
Parameters
cir committed-information-rate: Specifies the committed information rate (CIR) in kbps.
cbs committed-burst-size: Specifies the committed burst size (CBS) in bytes. The committed-burst-size
argument ranges from 4000 to 16000000, the default is 4000.
ebs excess-burst-size: Specifies excess burst size (EBS) in bytes. The excess-burst-size argument ranges
from 0 to 16000000, the default is 4000.
pir peak-information-rate: Specifies the peak information rate (PIR) in kbps.
green action: Specifies the action to be conducted for the traffic conforming to CIR. The action argument can
be:
discard: Drops the packets.
pass: Forwards the packets.
remark-dscp-pass new-dscp: Marks the packets with a new DSCP precedence and forwards them to
their destinations. The new-dscp argument is in the range 0 to 63.
By default, packets conforming to CIR are forwarded.
red action: Specifies the action to be conducted for the traffic conforms to neither CIR nor PIR. The action
argument can be:
discard: Drops the packets.
pass: Forwards the packets.
remark-dscp-pass new-dscp: Marks the packets with a new DSCP precedence and forwards them to
their destinations. The new-dscp argument is in the range 0 to 63.
By default, packets conforming to neither CIR nor PIR are dropped.
yellow action: Specifies the action to be conducted for the traffic conforms to PIR but does not conform to CIR.
The actionargument can be:
discard: Drops the packets.
pass: Forwards the packets.
remark-dscp-pass new-dscp: Marks the packets with a new DSCP precedence and forwards them to
their destinations. The new-dscp argument is in the range 0 to 63.By default, packets conforming to PIR but not conforming to CIR are forwarded.
