I'm surprised you referenced Solie's book for FRTS. Some definitions may be
good, but the config examples provided by Solie are incorrect. I think this
book has caused a lot of the confusion out there about FRTS.

Do you have access to the Solie book, "CCIE Practical Studies"? There
is a pretty good explanation of these on page 366.

"Frame-relay be out bps - This is the number of extra bits remaining
from the previous bursts that will be sent on the first interval. This
should not exceed the port speed of the remote router."

This is my understanding.

Tc = Bc/CIR
Bc = CIR/8 (this is for 125msec) or CIR/10 (this is for 10msec - VOICE)
Be = ????????????

I have seen an opinion in that (Be = port speed minus CIR)

So if in the lab I have a task in which the CIR is less than the AR
should I use the above formula for Be or should I use another formula?

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/125/traffic_shaping_6151.html

"Configure Be only if the Frame Relay CIR value is less than the AR. For
PVCs carrying voice packets, the Be must be set to zero to ensure best
possible voice quality."

Thank You,
Scott
