The Protection Frame field is always Jumbo; no other configurable options are supported. The Fairness 
Mode field is always Aggressive.

In the commands listed above, the upper limit of the range value depends on the circuit size. For 
example, if x is the maximum range value in megabits per second (Mb/s):

FOR_STS1 circuit, x = 48

FOR_STS3c_VC4 circuit, x = 149

FOR_STS6c_VC4_2c circuit, x = 299

FOR_STS9c_VC4_3c circuit, x = 488

FOR_STS12c_VC4_4c circuit, x = 598

FOR_STS24c_VC4_8c circuit, x = 1196

FOR_STS9c_VC4_3c circuit, COMMITTED bandwidth, x = 499

FOR_STS12c_VC4_4c circuit, COMMITTED bandwidth, x= 599

BW_FOR_STS24c_VC4_8c circuit, COMMITTED bandwidth, x = 1198
