alphanumeric characters, including spaces.

recommendation is a setting between 20 kbps and 20000 kbps for an individual

Bandwidth
Select this option to allow a rule to borrow unused bandwidth on the interface.
Bandwidth borrowing is governed by the priority of the rules. That is, a rule with
the highest priority is the first to borrow bandwidth. Do not select this if you want
to leave bandwidth available for other traffic types or if you want to restrict the
amount of bandwidth that can be used for the traffic that matches this rule.
