Hi Everyone,

  I am having a bit of trouble understanding the following behavior, i hope
you can help.

I have a physical frame-relay interface. On it, i have applied a map-class
to a DLCI.
The only thing that is in the map-class to begin with is:

map-class frame-relay R1-R2
 frame-relay cir 128000

The output of the: show traffic-shape
R1#sh traffic-shape

Interface   Se0/0
       Access Target    Byte   Sustain   Excess    Interval  Increment Adapt
VC     List   Rate      Limit  bits/int  bits/int  (ms)      (bytes)
Active
102           128000    2000   128000    0         125       2000      -

According to all the documentation i have been able to find, the
interpretation of the fields in this command is:
Byte-Limit = Bc+Be
Sustain = Bc
Excess = Be
Interval = Refill rate.

But if that should be the interpretation, then i would assume the sustain
should be: 16000, be = 0, and refill = 2000.
If you should believe the above sustain, then you would send out 1024000
(128000 * 8 (since Tc is .125)) each second.

If i alter my map-class:

map-class frame-relay R1-R2
 frame-relay cir 128000
 frame-relay bc 16000

it shows:
R1(config-map-class)#do sh traffic-shape

Interface   Se0/0
       Access Target    Byte   Sustain   Excess    Interval  Increment Adapt
VC     List   Rate      Limit  bits/int  bits/int  (ms)      (bytes)
Active
102           128000    2000   16000     0         125       2000      -

which is correct.

Whats up with this?

Thanks!
