I have 3 QOS questions which there seems to be a difference of opinion
on:

1)If a Hub with a large CIR or AR (1544) and has a Multipoint circuit
and defined several subinterfaces on networks with the spokes which
have smaller CIR or AR (64), should each subinterface have traffic
shaping applied in such a way that the hubs bandwidth is divided up,
and spokes are not overwhelmed, or should each subinterface have
traffic shaping applied in such a way that they could utilize the whole
 1544 during times where the other PVC's have no traffic?

2) Is the basis for the Tc calculated by the router, by the configured
CIR/Bc ?

3) Can Be only be invoked if the CIR is less than the AR, and is it
measured in what the burst would be {ie.(32000)} divided by the CIR/Tc
(ie 8). Even though we can only burst in the first Tc and would only
effectivly ever use a fraction of the 32000?

I know these have been discussed before on this list, and are written
about in all the books mentioned on this list and are adressed on CCO
but I have seen a couple of variations between explanations.
