Yep, that would make sense with the rest of the text. Thank you so much for your help!

I still think it is "throughput rate". Other common terms used in networking to describe this phenomenon might be "transmission rate" or "data transfer rate".

I think you may be right about "d�bit de cadencement" being throughput rate and not "scheduler" based on the following sentence:
Configuration des Shaping and Grooming:
Principes des fonctions cadenceur et scheduler. (Scheduler is already used).
Here are two more sentences using "d�bit de cadencement", do you think "throughput rate would still make sense?
Si le SG n'est plus contact� par le SGM pendant 30 secondes, il utilise le d�bit de cadencement nominal.
Un d�bit de cadencement dynamique minimal est allou� pour une r�gle de shaping sans trafic. Thanks in advance!

I can't tell you exactly, because it would reveal the name of the company (breach of confidentiality), but it is basically traffic management equipment (traffic flow between WAN and LAN, for example). Does that make it any clearer?

Can you provide any information as to what SGM stands for?
