Time Frame used for MPLS CIR / Shaping

Jul 17, 2006 0 Replies

Does anyone know what time period is used for determining things like CIR, and over and under a service level? For example if you send 50Kbs one second and nothing the next you are at 25Kb/s, but if you have a



32K CIR you might be considered over for the first second. Do ciscos use a running total (if so over what time period, and is it tunable), or does it use a sliding window (and how long a window)?

Thanks.
