+| **Applies to:** Outbound traffic.
+
+`Common Applications Kept Enhanced`_ (CAKE) is a comprehensive queue management
+system, implemented as a queue discipline (qdisc) for the Linux kernel. It is
+designed to replace and improve upon the complex hierarchy of simple qdiscs
+presently required to effectively tackle the bufferbloat problem at the network
+edge.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> bandwidth <value>
+
+   Set the shaper bandwidth, either as an explicit bitrate or a percentage
+   of the interface bandwidth.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> description
+
+   Set a description for the shaper.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> flow-isolation blind
+
+   Disables flow isolation, all traffic passes through a single queue.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> flow-isolation dst-host
+
+   Flows are defined only by destination address.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> flow-isolation dual-dst-host
+
+   Flows are defined by the 5-tuple. Fairness is applied first over destination
+   addresses, then over individual flows.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> flow-isolation dual-src-host
+
+   Flows are defined by the 5-tuple. Fairness is applied first over source
+   addresses, then over individual flows.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> flow-isolation flow
+
+   Flows are defined by the entire 5-tuple (source IP address, source port,
+   destination IP address, destination port, transport protocol).
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> flow-isolation host
+
+   Flows are defined by source-destination host pairs.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> flow-isolation nat
+
+   Perform NAT lookup before applying flow-isolation rules.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> flow-isolation src-host
+
+   Flows are defined only by source address.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> flow-isolation triple-isolate
+
+   **(Default)** Flows are defined by the 5-tuple, fairness is applied over source and
+   destination addresses and also over individual flows.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set qos policy cake <text> rtt
+
+   Defines the round-trip time used for active queue management (AQM) in
+   milliseconds. The default value is 100.
