I'm not sure if policing will solve your problem.
To police incoming traffic, you need to add an ingress qdisc. And 1 filter
that matches all traffic and you need to configure the filter with a policer.
If the incoming rate exceeds the rate of the policer, all incoming packets
above that rate are dropped.
I have no examples to show you, but if you download the iproute2 source, you
will find some examples in the examples directory.
