-Certain features of RabbitMQ (such as the Federation plugin) are
-controlled by dynamic, cluster-wide
-.Em parameters.
-There are 2 kinds of parameters: parameters scoped to a virtual host and
-global parameters.
-Each vhost-scoped parameter consists of a component name, a name and a
-value.
-The component name and name are strings, and the value is a valid JSON document.
-A global parameter consists of a name and value.
-The name is a string and the value is an arbitrary Erlang data structure.
-Parameters can be set, cleared and listed.
-In general you should refer to the documentation for the feature in
-question to see how to set parameters.

Policies is a feature built on top of runtime parameters.
Policies are used to control and modify the behaviour of queues and
exchanges on a cluster-wide basis.
