	After a flow has been assigned a policy, at some later time when the traffic is classified the user
	can assign an application to this flow. This uses the bwc config to create a bwc policy with the
	categories keyword: for example, p2p category below:

	tmsh create net bwc policy gold_user categories add { p2p { max-cat-rate 8mbps } } max-rate 10mbps
	max-user-rate 10mbps dynamic enabled

	The rule args

	BWC::color

	when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
	    set mycookie [IP::remote_addr]:[TCP::remote_port]
	    BWC::policy attach gold_user $mycookie
