Dear all,

   I understand that the command "shape max-buffers xxx" is using in a
CB-Shaping to configure the maximum number of packets will be queued in the
shaping buffer. However, what is the difference of the command with
"queue-limit'? For example:

policy-map testing
  class class-default
   shape average 128000
   shape max-buffers 2048
   fair-queue
   queue-limit 256

R5#sh policy-map testing
  Policy Map testing
    Class class-default
      Traffic Shaping
         Average Rate Traffic Shaping
                 CIR 128000 (bps) Max. Buffers Limit 2048 (Packets)
      Weighted Fair Queueing
            Flow based Fair Queueing Max Threshold 256 (packets)

   Then, how many packets are allowed to be buffered? 256 or 2048?

   Moreover, is there any command to do the similar in GTS?

Best Regards,
William Chen
