I thought that when you purchased bandwidth, the CIR that you purchased was
the minimum guaranteed amount of bandwidth that the provider had to make
available to you? If you bought a T1 with a 128K CIR you would always have
at least 128K available to you no matter how much traffic was on their Frame
network and you would be able to burst to ~1.5Mbps, provided that their
network was not saturated, correct?

Subject: RE: cir, bc, be
CIR is the average speed you'll transmit overall. In addition to this, you
can burst (Bc) up to, in your example, another 128K (256K total) for a
predefined period of time (usually about 1 second). Be designates all those
packets above the Bc; these are marked DE and will be discarded if
congestion occurs.

Subject: cir, bc, be
I'm having trouble getting my head around how bc and be relate to cir. For
example, if all 3 are set to 128k, is bc included in cir, or is it
additional to cir. etc, etc.
TIA
