RE: Shape Average command

Thanks the reply.

The Cisco doc says "If the traffic being sent to the network must
strictly conform to the configured network provisioned CIR, then you
should use average traffic shaping."

This sort of leads back to my original question. If the "shape average"
is used to confirm traffic to CIR, what is the purpose of allowing "be"
to be specified? Is there a special scenario the "be" parameter is
needed?

thanks

Michael,

The shape average command does allow excess burst traffic to be sent
when Be is configured.
