This read-only EltCPURateLimiterTrafficType value identifies which CPU rate-limited traffic type (such as a specific control-plane protocol class) a row in the eltSyslogCPURateLimiterTable's logging settings applies to, and it also serves as the table's index. An admin uses this to identify which traffic category's rate-limiter logging is being enabled or disabled when walking the table. For example, an entry indexed to a traffic type like ARP or DHCP snooping would let the admin control logging specifically for CPU-rate-limiting events on that protocol class.
