/** A Bandwidth represents the b= fields contained within either a MediaDescription or a
* SessionDescription.
*
* This specifies the proposed bandwidth to be used by the session or media, and is optional. Multiple
* bandwidth specifiers of different types may be associated with the same SessionDescription. Each
* consists of a token type and an integer value measuring bandwidth in kilobits per second.
*
* RFC 2327 defines two bandwidth types (or modifiers):
*
* CT
* Conference Total: An implicit maximum bandwidth is associated with each TTL on the Mbone or
* within a particular multicast administrative scope region (the Mbone bandwidth vs. TTL limits are given
* in the MBone FAQ). If the bandwidth of a session or media in a session is different from the
* bandwidth implicit from the scope, a 'b=CT:...' line should be supplied for the session giving the
* proposed upper limit to the bandwidth used. The primary purpose of this is to give an approximate
* idea as to whether two or more conferences can co-exist simultaneously.
* AS
* Application-Specific Maximum: The bandwidth is interpreted to be application-specific, i.e., will be the
* application's concept of maximum bandwidth. Normally this will coincide with what is set on the
* application's "maximum bandwidth" control if applicable.
*
* Note that CT gives a total bandwidth figure for all the media at all sites. AS gives a bandwidth figure for a
* single media at a single site, although there may be many sites sending simultaneously.
*
* Please refer to IETF RFC 2327 for a description of SDP.
