Description
Configure shaping rate to throttle the rate at which queues transmit packets.
We recommend that you configure the shaping rate as an absolute maximum usage and not as additional usage beyond the configured transmit rate.
Default
If you do not include this statement, the default shaping rate is 100 percent, which is the same as no shaping at all.
