Networking::PacketFilter::get_rate_class

Introduced : BIG-IP_v9.0
Gets the rate classes that will be used to rate limit the traffic. If the rule has an associated Rate Class name, then any traffic allowed by the rule will also be rate limited according to the behavior of the specified rate class. It is meaningless to associate a rate class with a rule that has a discard or reject action. Likewise, the rate class will only take effect when the traffic actually leaves the system. If the traffic does not leave the system, the rate class has no effect.
