    Traffic Shaping :

        - Traffic shaping is an open loop control that manages the congestion by forcing the packet transmission rate which is more predictable.

        - Traffic shaping also known as packet shaping, Quality of Service(QoS) or bandwidth management.

        - The benefits of traffic shaping includes the priority aspect of business-critical over non-critical traffic and the creation of tiered service levels.

        - Traffic shaping is required both at the network level and the application level.
