max_bitrate( )
Enforces upper limits on the instantaneous bandwidth of the current streaming transaction. This
policy is enforced during initial connection setup. If the client requests a higher bit rate than allowed
by policy, the request is denied.
Note: Under certain network conditions, a client may receive a stream that temporarily exceeds the
specified bit rate.

•
no—Allows any bitrate.
