At a router command line, type "show frame pvc". Look at the stats for In
DE Pkts and Dropped Packets for the PVC in question. This will show you the
number of packets that crossed that PVC while over your CIR, and also the
actual number of packets dropped.
It's probably best to clear your counters first and then wait a day or so to
get a more accurate indication of what is currently happening on that
circuit.
