Create a new rule to add a traffic shaping rule. Traffic shaping policies consist of a series of rules that are
performed in the order in which they appear in the policy, similar to custom firewall rules. There are two main
components to each rule: the type of traffic to be limited or shaped (rule definition), and how that traffic should be
limited or shaped (rule actions).

Note:
Traffic forwarding priority for unmatched rules is medium.
When the bandwidth is set to 0, the rate of traffic is not limited.
The value of guaranteed bandwidth should not be greater than the limit bandwidth.
