Re: random detect under a policy-map

Per my understanding solution#1 looks more appropriate as it is asked to
reserve the bandwidth for all traffic to 60% and do random detect once
traffic passes its limit. We could have used shaping if the requirement was
to delay the excessive traffic by buffering them using shaping. Instead, it
was asked to do random detect as soon as traffic exceed. Pls correct me if
I missunderstood it.
