Abstract
A network adapter includes a network interface, a host interface and processing circuitry. The network interface is configured to connect to a communication network. The host interface is configured to communicate with a host processor running multiple application programs. The processing circuitry includes one or more bandwidth-control policers, and is configured to receive from the communication network a packet destined to a given application program among the application programs running on the host processor, to associate a bandwidth-control policer with the packet, selected from among the bandwidth-control policers, and to apply the selected bandwidth-control policer to the packet to produce a policer result.
