Class CIM_MeterService
extends CIM_ConditioningService

This class represents the metering of network traffic. Metering is the function of monitoring the arrival times of packets of a traffic stream and determining the level of conformance of each packet with respect to a pre- established traffic profile. A meter has the ability to invoke different ConditioningServices for conforming and non-conforming traffic. Traffic leaving a meter may be further conditioned (e.g., dropped or queued) by routing the packet to another conditioning element. This class is modeled as a ConditioningService so that it can be aggregated into a QoSService (using the QoSConditioningSubService association), to indicate that its functionality underlies that QoS service. MeterService also participates in a subclass of the NextService association, to identify the subsequent ConditioningServices for conforming and non-conforming traffic.

ConformanceLevels	uint16
ConformanceLevels	uint16		Description	string	An unsigned integer indicating the number of conformance levels supported by the Meter. For example, when only 'in-profile' or 'out of profile' metering is supported. ConformanceLevels is set to 2.
MeterType	uint16
			Description	string	This property is an enumerated 16-bit unsigned integer that is used to specify the particular type of meter. Defined values of the enumeration are: 1: Other 2: Average Rate Meter 3: Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Meter 4: Token Bucket Meter Note: The MeterType property and the MeterService subclasses provide similar information. This property is defined for query purposes and for future expansion. It is assumed that not all MeterServices will require a subclass to define them. Therefore, MeterService will be instantiated directly and the Type property is needed.

OtherMeterType	string
			Description	string	This property is a string used in conjunction with the MeterType property. When the value of MeterType is 1 (i.e., "Other"), then the name of the conformance level for this meter is defined in this property.
