Minimum Bandwidth: Minimum guaranteed bandwidth, specified as a percentage of the link speed. The total across all partitions will add up to less than
the maximum link bandwidth. The queue's rate will be allowed to exceed the specified value up to max-rate, if excess bandwidth is available on the
physical port link.
b
