Yes I know, but can multiple filters share the same policer so you police
the traffic that matches those filters. For example, you have a u32 filter
that matches all traffic from host1 and another u32 that matches all traffic
from host2. Now I would like to police both traffic streams so if the sum of
the rates of both streams exceeds a certain rate, the all packets in both
streams are remarked/dropped. Is this possible?
