When BWC policy is configured with category that is configured at lower rate than max-user-rate, when the system is congested, the system might experience lower bandwidth and is not able to fill the pipe.
Lower bandwidth is seen.
BWC dynamic policy configured with category. The number of sessions created is greater than max-rate/max-user-rate, utilizing all the policies. For example: max-rate=10mbps, max user rate=5mbps, cat rate=3mbps.
