Parameters
kbps Enter the keyword kbps to specify the rate limit in Kilobits
per second (Kbps). Enter the value in multiples of 64. The
range is from 0 to 100000000. The default granularity is
Megabits per second (Mbps).
rate The range is from 10 to 40000.
burst-KB (OPTIONAL) Enter the burst size in KB. The range is from 0
to 10000. The default is 50.
Defaults Granularity for rate is Mbps unless you use the kbps option.

Usage Information
If traffic is shaped between 64 and 1000 Kbs, for some values, the shaped rate is
much less than the value configured.
On 40-port 10G stack-unit if the traffic is shaped between 64 and 1000 Kbs, for
some values, the shaped rate is much less than the value configured.
NOTE: When packets of size greater than 7000 bytes are expected to be
received from the network, Dell Networking recommends that you configure
the burst value to be more than 175 KB if you configured the rate shape. Such
a setting ensures proper bandwidth sharing across queues.
