You have the correct formula, the statement you need if you use policing should look something like this. police 300 375000 conform-action transmit exceed-action drop You may want to consider shaping instead of policing as it will most likely give you better performance. With policing or sha

The third number is excess burst which should be 0 in this case. My understanding is if you do not specify it should be 0, but you could put it in to be on the safe side. The second number is committed burst and if you don't put it in the router calculates what it thinks is best. Please let me know

Traffic policing allows you to control the maximum rate. Traffic shaping is used to avoid congestion. a good site that explains this http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fqos_c/fqcprt4/qcfpolsh.htm#22120 alaerte Vidali wrote: > > If you specify maximum burst

The DR is elected first by highest priority, the tie breaker is highest RID. Then the process is repeated for the BDR. http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/104/2.html#10.1 My understanding is that if the DR goes down then the BDR is promoted to DR and an election is held for the new BDR. This means

I agree with Larry. We support 6500 + devices and have had our far share of connectivity issues. Last year we had a few NICs that generated lots of errors when they were hard set to match the switch. We tried every combination of negotiation and the only setting the eliminated the errors was auto/a

RE: Frame-relay & HSRP [7:72166]

I have seen this problem before with frame. LMI being local to the frame switch means the interface does not go down and backups routes do not kick in. One way to overcome this is to monitor layer 2 by using the “frame-relay end-to-end keepalive mode bidirectional” command within a map class on bot

I have seen a similar issue with a VPN connection. The problem was caused when an NT admin wrote a batch file that did a large FTP across the link every 45 minutes. The large volume of traffic caused the router cpu to spike due to the encryp/decryp load… hence slow performance. I would try to chec
