After configuring VLANs in the rate police command, if this error message appears: %Error: Specified VLANs overlap with existing config. Check to see if the same VLANs are used with the rate limit command on other interfaces. To clear the problem, remove the rate limit configuration(s), and re-configure the rate police command.
