| Overview |
| ******** |
| |
| Credit-based shaping is an alternative scheduling algorithm used in |
| network schedulers to achieve fairness when sharing a limited network |
| resource. Zephyr has support for configuring a credit-based shaper |
| described in the `IEEE 802.1Qav-2009 standard`_. Zephyr does not |
| implement the actual shaper; it only provides a way to configure the |
| shaper implemented by the Ethernet device driver. |
