Andy,

You are sending 24kilobits per TC which is 125ms or 1/8 of a second.

The CIR is set to 192 kilobits per *second*.

Multiply 24 * 8 and you will get what you are sending per second which is 192

HTH,

  The bit that confuses me, is that it says it sends during the first interval
Tc. This suggests (given default Tc)

  Tc1 Tc2 Tc3 Tc4 Tc5 Tc6 Tc7 Tc8
  (Bc + Be) (Bc) (Bc) (Bc) (Bc) (Bc) (Bc) (Bc)

  Therefore I would config Be at 192000, so as to reach AR.
  If we configure Be at 24000, and given that Be only sends during first Tc,
we are only getting Bc (192000) + Be for Tc1 (24000) which does not equal Ar.

  I understand the maths and how to acheive the figures, what I dont get is
why do we configure Be for each Tc "Tc1 - Tc8" when it says Be is only sent
during first Tc (Tc1).

    You have to use the same Tc value for the Be that was used for the Bc.
    As you stated originally, "use the default Tc value" which is 125ms.

    So they gave you the Access Rate, CIR and MinCIR.

    You take the CIR 192000 and multiply it for .125 which gives you the Bc
    (24000)
    You have another 192kbps for bursting (384000 - 192000) so you take that
    amount
    and do the same calculation (192000 * .125) to get the Be (24000)
