Abstract
A network device may determine a token refresh interval, and may generate tokens for a rate limiter based on the token refresh interval. The network device may receive packets or requests to be processed by the rate limiter, and may monitor a consumption of the tokens by the packets or requests during a time interval. The network device may adjust the token refresh interval based on the consumption and to generate a new token refresh interval, and may generate new tokens for the rate limiter based on the new token refresh interval.
