Description: This attribute specifies a shaping group number. Aggregate shaping across one or more QoS Target instances (i.e., shaping traffic identified by one or more QoS Target entries as if they were a single flow) is supported by assigning the same shaping group number to multiple QoS Target entries. A value equal to 0 for this attribute indicates that aggregate shaping with one or more existing policies is not specified.

Note that a shaping specification may be indirectly specified using this attribute. The shaping specification associated with the shaping group, if it already exists, is used in this case. Inconsistencies between the shaping group shaping specification and a non-zero value for the qosTargetShapingParams attribute results in an error.
