Re: Zero CIR
I am pretty sure it means that the carrier is no guaranteeing any data rate. I know some gov agencies that got suckered into that agreement years ago.

I agree "suckered" may not have been the best choice of wording to represent all who purchased a Zero CIR for the network. In some situations it my be appropriate.

RE: Zero CIR
Yeah don't let them fool you with the old, if it is interlata that you don't need CIR. That is the minimal level of bandwidth that you substain with any packets getting marked DE. Having at least 25% CIR can make a noticible difference in performance. -Original Message- From: Lonnie Paschall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 07, 2000 7:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Zero CIR I am pretty sure it means that the carrier is no guaranteeing any data rate.

Re: Zero CIR
Yes. The discard Eligibility bit is set for all of your frames. Depending on how oversubscribed the line is, this could be a okay, or bad. Also ask your provider about _C_ommited _B_urst _R_ate.

Re: Zero CIR
However, with a zero CIR you also have to keep in mind that alot of carriers calculate the subscription load on their switch by the aggregate CIR of all of the customers on the switch. If they have alot of customers with a zero CIR on a given switch, then it is more likely to become over-subscribed (and bogged down). Fun huh? Not only do they promise diddly-squat, but you don't even count for anything (except money that is).

Basically, that's what it means. But I would hesitate to use the word "suckered". For one thing, it's dirt cheap. For another, it's basically what you get from the Internet, so they should've known what they were buying. "We'll do our best, but we can't guarantee that your data will make it to the destination at all, let alone at any given rate" is what "best effort" is all about. > "John lay" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > Guys, > > > > Zero CIR means that the provider is comitted to provide nothing or there > is > > a mimimum ? -- Bungee jumping and skydiving are for wimps.

RE: Zero CIR
Interesting thread. The company I work for is partnered with Sprint. When we sell frame service, 99% of the time we sell a 0 CIR unless there is voice involved. Have yet to have a problem with throughput.
