I naively assumed that when an end station exceeded its allowed bandwidth (its bucket emptied), all it had to do was be idle until its bucket filled up again, then everything would be the same as before. But my experience is once an end station exceeds its allowed bandwith, from then on its bandwith _stays_ at the throttled value (as though most of its bucket got sawed off). Do I misunderstand how it's supposed to work, or is the behavior I'm seeing not what other folks see, or...? tia! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
