Ohio, and guys,
Should this config (Config 1) below from Wayne be corrected to Config 2?
!!Config 1
map-class frame Shape32
frame traffic-shaping adaptive becn
frame bc 4000
frame be 4000
frame cir 64000
frame mincir 32000

!!Config 2
map-class frame Shape32
frame traffic-shaping adaptive becn
frame bc 8000
frame be 0
frame cir 64000
frame mincir 32000

This topic is getting more interesting. :-) Let's nail it down.

So, based on this discussion, it would appear that Solie's book requires
a[nother] correction??

!for Darth Reid Lab, P1149, Section III 4.
!FRTS on PVC between R1 R2
!Carrier CIR is 32K, Local Port Speed is 64K

!Solie says
map-class frame-relay mymap
frame-relay cir 32000
frame-relay bc 64000
frame-relay be 0
frame-relay adaptive-shaping becn
!by default
!frame-relay mincir 16

!should this be (assuming Tc=0.125)
map-class frame Shape32
frame traffic-shaping adaptive becn
frame bc 4000
frame be 4000
frame cir 64000
frame mincir 32000

Brian,

What units are you using to require division by 1000? Most Cisco documents
seem to give Bc= CIR * Tc.

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk713/tk237/technologies_configuration_e
xample09186a00800942f8.shtml

See the document I cited in my earlier post (included above) under
"Nonconfigurable parameters - interval (Tc)" -

---
"The time interval during which you send the Bc bits in order to maintain
the average rate of the CIR in seconds.

Tc = Bc/CIR in seconds.

The range for Tc is between 10 ms and 125 ms." --- In the example given in the Cisco document, Bc is 8000 bits, CIR is 64000 bps, then Tc = 8000 bits / 64000 bps = 1/8 second.

Or if you use Bc = CIR * Tc, then Bc = 64000 bps * 1/8 second = 8000 bits.

What does dividing by 1000 get me?

Thanks.
