Service Rate
This sets the bandwidth level for the Service Rate to be applied to user-defined
classes of traffic flows.
For the top two Per-Hop Behavior categories—Class Selector 6 and Expedited
Forwarding—this value represents the maximum average bandwidth guaran-
teed for the traffic flow and is preset to the channel rate.
For the Assured Forwarding Classes, this value represents the minimum aver-
age bandwidth guaranteed for the traffic flow and is configurable for Classes 2,
3, and 4.
The two lowest categories—AFC1 and Default—are preset for Best Effort.

This sets the maximum threshold for the average queue depth (buffer) for a
particular traffic class, beyond which all packets are dropped. The default
setting is the maximum value.
