This attribute is HISTORICAL. Please refer to the attribute of the same name in the group AtmTmOper.

This attribute is a vector of five transmit traffic parameters. The first three elements reflect the settings of the first three elements of the txTrafficDescParm attribute in the AtmTrafficProv group.

When txTrafficDescType is 1 or 2, parameters 1 through 5 are unused.

In this description, PCR is the greater of either the PCR or the requested shaping rate (parameter 1 or parameter 5) specified in the Traffic group under the Vcd or Vpd.

When txTrafficDescType is 3, parameter 1 represents the PCR for CLP equal to 0 or 1 traffic; parameters 2 and 3 are unused.

When txTrafficDescType is 4, parameter 1 represents the PCR for CLP equal to 0 and 1 traffic; parameter 2 represents the PCR for CLP equal to 0 traffic with cell discard.

When txTrafficDescType is 5, parameter 1 represents the PCR for CLP equal to 0 and 1 traffic; parameter 2 represents the PCR for CLP equal to 0 traffic with cell tagging.

When txTrafficDescType is 6, parameter 1 represents the PCR for CLP equal to 0 and 1 traffic; parameter 2 represents the SCR for CLP equal to 0 and 1 traffic; parameter 3 represents the MBS for CLP equal to 0 and 1 traffic.

When txTrafficDescType is 7, parameter 1 represents the PCR for CLP equal to 0 and 1 traffic; parameter 2 represents the SCR for CLP equal to 0 traffic with cell discard; parameter 3 represents the MBS for CLP equal to 0 traffic.

When txTrafficDescType is 8, parameter 1 represents the PCR for CLP equal to 0 and 1 traffic; parameter 2 represents the SCR for CLP equal to 0 traffic with cell tagging; parameter 3 represents the MBS for CLP equal to 0 traffic

When txTrafficDescType is 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8, parameter 4 reflects the actual shaping rate in cell/s for this connection. This rate is one of the set of available shaping rates for this type of ATM-FP, based on the number of interfaces doing shaping (attribute perVcQueueInterfaces), the provisioned cell rate, the shapingScalingFactor attribute of the AtmResourceControl component, and whether traffic shaping is enabled. A rate of zero (0) indicates that shaping is not performed.

When txTrafficDescType is 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8, parameter 5 reflects the equivalent cell rate in cell/s for this connection as determined by the Connection Admission Control (CAC) algorithm. The equivalent cell rate is useful in determining the admission characteristics of this connection.
