198 | Chapter 11. CoS Queuing
ProSafe M4100 and M7100 Managed Switches
command to enable traffic shaping by specifying the maximum transmission bandwidth limit
for all interfaces (Global Config) or for a single interface (Interface Config).
The <bw> value is a percentage that ranges from 0 to 100 in increments of 5. The default
bandwidth value is 0, meaning no upper limit is enforced, which allows the interface to
transmit up to its maximum line rate.
The bw value is independent of any per-queue maximum bandwidth values in effect for the
interface and should be considered as a second-level transmission rate control mechanism
that regulates the output of the entire interface regardless of which queues originate the
outbound traf
fic.
CLI: Configure traffic-shape
(Netgear Switch) (Config)#traffic-shape?

in increments of 5.
