# Class CIM_AverageRateMeterService
extends CIM_MeterService

This is a concrete subclass of MeterService that represents a simple meter, called an Average Rate Meter. This type of meter measures the average rate at which packets are submitted to it over a specified time. Packets are defined as conformant if their average arrival rate does not exceed the specified measuring rate of the meter. Any packet that causes the specified measuring rate to be exceeded is defined to be non-conforming.

### Local Class Properties

Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers
--- | --- | --- | ---
Name | Data Type | Value
AverageRate | uint32 |
Description | string | This property is a 32-bit unsigned integer that defines the rate used to determine whether admitted packets are in conformance or not. The value is specified in kilobits per second.
Units | string | KiloBits per Second
DeltaInterval | uint64 |
Description | string | This property is a 64-bit unsigned integer that defines the time period over which the average measurement should be taken. The value is specified in microseconds.
Units | string | MicroSeconds
