Abstract
A device includes one or more ports, one or more bandwidth shapers, and processing logic. The one or more ports are to connect to a communication network. A given bandwidth shaper is to: (i) when disabled, output traffic at an available full data rate, and (ii) when enabled, output the traffic at a specified shaper data rate lower than the available full data rate. The processing logic is to receive or generate notifications, which are indicative of average power that is consumed by the network device while outputting traffic through the one or more bandwidth shapers via the one or more ports, and based on at least some of the notifications, toggle at least one of the one or more bandwidth shapers between being enabled and disabled, to retain the average power consumed below a specified power budget.
