I've also seen reference to the CIR as follows:

sampling rate = bc/CIR so CIR = bc/sampling rate.

So a bc of 64k and a sampling rate of 125ms would equate to a CIR of X.

I also keep seeing this reference to setting the CIR to the port speed
in all the CCO an in all the books and in these posts. I guess I will
adhere to this in the lab since I am seeing that this CCIE effort is
more theory than practical, however, what I have observed in real life
is that traffic shaping is used when many, many logical circuits
inhabit a phisical link (ATM or FRAME). In the case of frame-relay, if
the hub has 1544 kbps and 8 pvc's with 8 class's and each spoke has 64k
on each of their circuits,how can the CIR be 1544 on every map class.
Isn't the idea to carve up the bandwidth amongst the spokes?
