Normal Rate Granted (caqFlowPolicerNormalRateGrant)
The granted average rate of the flow. The base unit of this object is 1 kilobyte per second.
Normal Rate Action (caqFlowPolicerNormalRateAction)
The action for normal rate out-of-profile packets. There are two possible values: drop(1) and policedDscp(2).
Note: An out-of-profile packet is a packet that causes the committed access rate for the packet's flow to be exceeded.
Excess Rate Requested (caqFlowPolicerExcessRateRequest)
The requested excess rate of the flow. The base unit of this object is 1 kilobyte per second; values can be 0, or range from 32 to 8,000,000.
If specified, the value must exceed the normal rate requested.
