RE: Available bandwidth calculation with prior to IOS 12.2

        No, you can tell it's relative because it doesn't decrement.
It's actually reserving 50% of what's available (75%), so like you said
the resulting reservation is 3.75Mbps. To fix this either issue the
"max-reserved-bandwidth 100" command on the interface or change
"bandwidth percent 50" to "bandwidth 5000".
