* PacketShaper 4500/ISP supports up to 1,000 inside IP address-based
or subnet-based classes. Using other class types, PacketShaper 4500/ISP
should be configured with 750 or fewer classes.
** PacketShaper can support more hosts and flows, however these figures
represent the ideal maximums for producing optimal results. It is normal
and expected to see the number of concurrent hosts at its limit.
*** 1000-SX = 1000Base-SX w/SC Ports (fiber optic)
