Rate	The rate configuration controls the maximum traffic rate sent or received on an interface. Consider this form of rate limiting on interfaces at the edge of a network to limit traffic into or out of the network. Traffic within the set limit is sent and traffic exceeding the set limit is dropped or sent with a different priority.
Priority	Lists the traffic shaper queue priority. There are 8 queues (0 - 7), and traffic is queued in each based on incoming packets 802.1p markings.
Packets Sent	Provides a baseline of the total number of packets sent to assess packet delays and drops as a result of the filter rules applied in the traffic shaping configuration.
Packets Delayed	Lists the packets defined as less important than prioritized traffic streams and delayed as a result of traffic shaping filter rules applied.
Packets Dropped	Lists the packets defined as less important than prioritized traffic streams, delayed and eventually dropped as a result of traffic shaping filter rules applied.
Current Length	Lists the packet length of the data traffic shaped to meet downstream requirements.
Current Latency	Traffic shaping latency is the time limit after which packets start dropping as a result of the traffic prioritization filter rules applied.
