Your information is incorrect. There is no bandwidth monitor integrated in any way. The iproute RPM has been installed since version 5.0, and can be used for traffic shaping, but isn't configured to do so.

See /usr/share/doc/iproute-2.2.4/ on your system.

this is a cut paste from one of the forums. i was refering to it...

You already have the cbq-init script provided in v0.3b2 with SME 5.5

It is a useful and easy way for getting some QOS working with your SME.
You can find it in /sbin/cbq I think.

If you need more info, or if it is too "light" for you, the actual is v0.7, a bit less easy to use. Anyway, you still have the "tc" and "ip" commands of iproute2...
