Your close, when the buffers is between 40% and 60% full you will drop 1 in
20 packets. After 60% you will drop all of the packets. Of course in
reality you would never do this with precedence 5 packets.

Hi

I might be wrong on this but can someone correct me
the 5 on the command means the precedence right, not
5%.

The way I interpret this is that on all packets that
have precedence value of 5 and if they remain in the
40-60 range than its ok if it goes higher than 60 than
randonmly 1 packet out of 20 will be dropped(having
precedence 5)
