Parameters
Note: You can set each parameter — background transmission queue, best effort transmission
queue, video transmission queue, voice transmission queue and turbo voice transmission queue —
to any value from 0 to 10 (0 means adaptive).
Note: The acceptable minbrate values are 6, 12 and 24 Mbps. The maximum basic rate choices
adjust automatically to be higher or equal to the minimum basic rate.
