The problem is elsewhere. What are the correct values for |>'rate' and 'ceil' of 11:2 class in this case?

Am I forced somehow to limit 'rate' of class 11:2 under the guaranteed value (5000Kbit), but let the 'ceil' equal to this value? It's better to give the clients let's say 95% of guaranteed bandwidth instead of 100%? - -- Catalin Bucur mailto:cata@geniusnet.ro NOC @ Genius Network SRL - Galati - Romania -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE99Py7pDe20wwI9oIRAp09AJ9eaj7A/GoKOUmKTGp2j+MqZxAR3ACeIyiV KxnF8AQ13K1fyM8eOaf5wfw= =YVIk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
