You want to use SHAPE AVERAGE for the PREC2 traffic. SHAPE PEAK will
allow more than 128K if it's available (how much more I don't know).
Using BANDWIDTH 128 for PREC2 will guarantee 128K of bandwidth and allow
more (upto the interface bandwidth) if there is no congestion, it will
not limit it to 128K. You definitely don't want to use BANDWIDTH.

Subject: QOS Conundrum - bandwidth, shape average or shape peak?
Hello,
I am trying to solve the below question. I have included the
configuration that I believe will work. I am just unclear as to the best
method to rate limit to a specific value if rate limiting and policing
are specifically forbidden. I have narrowed it down to the shape
average, shape peak or bandwidth statement but cant decide which to use.
"Configure R2 so that traffic marked with the precedence value 3 AND/OR
traffic from VLAN_C (1.1.1.1) to VLAN_BB2 (2.2.2.2) is guaranteed
minimum of 128K of bandwidth when sent out of interface fast 0/0. If
congestion occurs assure this traffic is randomly dropped. Also make
sure that traffic marked with prec value 2 is rate limited to 128K. Do
not use rate-limiting or policing."
Access-list 100 permit ip 1.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 2.2.2.0 0.0.0.255
class-map match-any prec3
match ip precedence 3
match access-group name prec3
!
class-map match-any PREC2
match ip precedence 2
!
policy-map cisco
class VLANC-TO-VLAN_BB2
bandwidth 128
random-detect
class PREC2
shape average 128000 -> my best guess
OR
class PREC2
shape peak 128000
OR
class PREC2
bandwidth 128
