Configuring the ATM Traffic-Shaping Carrier Module
About the ATM Traffic-Shaping Carrier Module
Note
Traffic-shaping configurations do not apply to regular virtual path (VP) tunnels defined on that interface,
except in the case of unspecified bit rate (UBR) VP tunnels. For example, when best-effort traffic
shaping is enabled on a physical interface, all the UBR VP tunnels defined on that interface are shaped
to their peak cell rate (PCR), but individual VCs within those VP tunnels are not shaped.

shaping is enabled on a physical interface, all the UBR VP tunnels defined on that interface are shaped
to their peak cell rate (PCR), but individual VCs within those VP tunnels are not shaped.
The TSCAM schedules the traffic classes constant bit rate (CBR), VBR, and best effort in a strict priority
in which CBR is the highest priority and best effort is the lowest priority. The best-effort traffic class
includes UBR, available bit rate (ABR) and UBR+ service categories. When traffic shaping is disabled
for all the traffic classes on a port, all the traffic from that port is switched unaltered as if it were a single
connection at the highest priority.

Note
Traffic shaping in the TSCAM is disabled by default. Any changes to shaping configurations are
supported across switch reloads only.

the TSCAM is in a Catalyst 8510 MSR switch router that is on the edge of a private enterprise network
connected to a public ATM network. The TSCAM helps ensure that the maximum number of cells
transmit through to the public network.
