I don't have direct knowledge of c3750 in this regard, but if they're like
c3560 (and they should be) they support shaping in only one direction, only
in 1% steps of the port bandwidth, and only starting at 10% of it. So if you
need to limit a customer to 5Mbps, you'll have to resort to limit it to
10Mbps (10% of a 100Mbps port) or also hardcode the port to 10Mbps. An
hardcoding brings other issues as well...

BTW, instead of assigning a /30 per user as wasting 75% of your IP address

Seconded, this is a really useful feature!
