Description
This parameter specifies the cost per byte TG characteristic for all link stations defined
on this port.
The cost per byte TG characteristic expresses the relative cost of transmitting a byte
over the associated TG. The units are user-defined and the assigned value should
reflect the actual expenses incurred for transmitting over the TG relative to all other
TGs in the network.A value of zero means that bytes may be transmitted over the TG
at no additional cost. Higher values represent higher costs.
