Usage Information

peak-rate	Define the peak rate, which is the guaranteed or minimum
	confirmed rate for the packets. Specify this value as a
	multiple of 64 if you specify the peak rate in Kbps. The range
	is from 0 to 40000000 for Kbps. The range is from 1 to
	268000000 for pps. The range is from 0 to 40000 for Mbps
	(which is the default measure for rate limits if you do not
	explicitly configure Kbps or pps)
kbps	Enter the keyword kbps to specify the peak rate limit in
	Kilobits per second (Kbps). Specify this value as a multiple of
	64. The range is from 0 to 40000000. The default granularity
	is Megabits per second (Mbps).
pps	Enter the keyword pps to specify the peak rate limit in
	packets per second (pps). The range is from 1 to 268000000.
	The default granularity is Megabits per second (Mbps).
peak-rate	Define the peak rate, which is the guaranteed or minimum
	confirmed rate for the packets. Specify this value as a
	multiple of 64 if you specify the peak rate in Kbps. The range
	is from 0 to 40000000 for Kbps. The range is from 1 to
	268000000 for pps. The range is from 0 to 40000 for Mbps
	(which is the default measure for rate limits if you do not
	explicitly configure Kbps or pps)
burst-KB	(OPTIONAL) Enter the peak burst size in KB. The range is
	from 0 to 10000. The default is 50 KB.
Packets	(OPTIONAL) Enter the peak burst size as a count of packets.
	The range is from 1 to 1073000. The default is 50 packets.
	The default peak rate is regarded as the same value as the
	configured peak rate.

Granularity for rate is Mbps unless you use the kbps option.

CONFIGURATION

Version	Description
9.7(0.0)	Introduced on the S6000-ON.
9.3(0.0)	Added support for committed rate and committed burst
	size, and for configuration of rate limits on the S6000
	platform.

If you specify the pps keyword after the rate-shape command, the peak rate, peak burst, committed rate and committed burst are all considered to be values as a measure of packets. If you do not specify the pps or kbps keyword, the peak and committed rate settings are considered to be values in Mbps. Similarly, if you enter the kbps keyword, the peak and committed rate settings are treated as values in Kbps.

You cannot configure the committed rate settings to use a different metric or unit from the metric that is set for peak rate attributes because when you use the
