Usage 
Information
rate-shape can be applied only as an aggregate policy. If it is applied as a class-based 
policy, rate-shape does not take effect.
On 40-port 10G linecards, if the traffic is shaped between 64 and 1000 Kbs, for some values the 
shaped rate is much less than the value configured. Do not use values in this range for 10G 
interfaces.
