If the bucket is already full of tokens, incoming tokens overflow and are not available
to future packets. At any time, the largest burst a source can send into the network
is roughly proportional to the size of the bucket.
The token bucket mechanism used for traffic shaping has both a token
bucket and a data buffer, or queue; if it did not have a data buffer, it would
be a policer. For traffic shaping, packets that arrive, that cannot be sent
immediately, are delayed in the data buffer.
For traffic shaping, a token bucket permits burstiness but bounds it. It guarantees
that the burstiness is bounded so that the flow will never send faster than the
capacity of the token bucket plus the time interval multiplied by the established rate
at which tokens are placed in the bucket. It also guarantees that the long-term
transmission rate will not exceed the established rate at which tokens are placed in
the bucket.

Description
The drop action to be taken. If count is selected the
dropcounter is incremented. When drop is selected all
packets exceeding the drop rate will be dropped.
Description
The mark action to be taken. If count is selected the
markcounter is incremented. When mark is selected all
packets exceeding the mark rate will be marked.
Description
If selected the tos byte in the IP header will be
overwritten for all marked packets.
If selected the tos byte in the IP header will not be
overwritten in case a packet is marked.
Description
The exact number to be set if tosmarking is enabled.
