The network shaping (setting limit on the available bandwidth for outgoing traffic) is generally defined for each Container on the given Hardware Node on the Configure Shaping page in Parallels Infrastructure Manager. The Shaping subtab of the Network tab allows you to view the shaping parameters for the given particular Container. These parameters can either be the default ones or customized already.
The presented table informs you of the Container shaping settings for each of the network classes configured on the Hardware Node. If the table is not present, this means that either traffic shaping is disabled on the Hardware Node, or no network classes are configured.
The Total Rate field informs you on the bandwidth limit that is set for the corresponding class on the Hardware Node, which means that the summary outgoing traffic of all the Containers of this Hardware Node to the external addresses belonging to this class cannot exceed this value.
The Rate Guarantee value serves as the guaranteed rate for the given Container with this class of addresses. Note though that if the total of all the Rate Guarantee values of all the Containers exceeds the Bandwith value and all the Containers will demand traffic at the same moment, each Container will have to get less traffic than is guaranteed to it.
