15.11  Setting the MaxBandwidth Attribute 
The SetAttribute() method is used to set or change the value of a CNA attribute.  
The MinBandwidth and MaxBandwidth attributes control the bandwidth allocations for a given CNA 
partition. The values are displayed in percentage. 
For Broadcom CNA cards, the MinBandwidth attribute values for a given port must always add up to 
either 0 or 100. MaxBandwidth is a value of 100 or less for any given partition. 
For the Qlogic CNA cards, the MinBandwidth attribute values for a given port must add up to 100 or 
less. MaxBandwidth again is a value of 100 or less for any given partition. 
Invoke SetAttribute() with the following parameters(from Section 15.1) and syntax: 
Target: FQDD attained through DCIM_NICInteger  
AttributeName: Attained from AttributeName field  
AttributeValue: A new value to assign to the specified NICAttribute. If this value is valid, it is 
applied to the PendingValue property or the Currentvalue property of the specified 
NICAttribute. Range of choices is attained from the LowerBound and UpperBound fields: 
 LowerBound = 0 
 UpperBound = 100
