Traffic Shaping Settings

interface by limiting the size of the WAN “pipe.” This function is most suitable for
Internet Service Providers or multi-interface routers.

When you use the traffic-shaping option to set the maximum speed for a router
port, the router will silently discard any packets that exceed the maximum port
speed.
