Hi group,

I am wondering, how do you calculate the burst rate on Ethernet. I know the
burst calculation for the FRTS, i.e, Bc=CIR x Tc. How do you calculate for
Ethernet?
I have a task to limit the ICMP traffic to 128kbps on an ethernet segment with
an allowable burst of 1/4th of this rate. I understand, you can apply MQC to
rate limit this particular traffic, but what is the 1/4th burst of 128kbps?

TIA,
RS
