Configure Traffic Shaping
This section describes the Traffic Shaping feature.
Traffic shaping controls the amount and volume of traffic transmitted through a network. This has the effect
of smoothing temporary traffic bursts over time.
Use the traffic-shape command to enable traffic shaping by specifying the maximum transmission
bandwidth limit for all interfaces (Global Config) or for a single interface (Interface Config).
The <bw> value is a percentage that ranges from 0 to 100 in increments of 5. The default bandwidth value is
0, meaning no upper limit is enforced, which allows the interface to transmit up to its maximum line rate.
The bw value is independent of any per-queue maximum bandwidth value(s) in effect for the interface and
should be considered as a second-level transmission rate control mechanism that regulates the output of the
entire interface regardless of which queues originate the outbound traffic.

<bw>
(Netgear Switch) (Config)#traffic-shape 70?
