i think correct A&D Traffic policing propagates bursts. When the traffic rate reaches the configured maximum rate (or committed information rate), excess traffic is dropped (or remarked). The result is an output rate that appears as a saw-tooth with crests and troughs. Unlike traffic shaping, traffic policing does not cause delay. Classification (which includes traffic policing, traffic shaping and queuing techniques) should take place at the network edge. It is recommended that classification occur as close to the source of the traffic as possible.

when I see policing, i normally consider the way police handle things, they always go direct to the responsible person (closer to the source) and not at police station (destination)
