Hello Guys,

when you put in a Bc value, you are actually affecting the Tc (there is no
direct way of setting the Tc). So in Roger's config, "frame-relay bc"
command is not required because it will be automatically calculated (from
default Tc of 125 ms) by IOS:

Bc = CIR x Tc
= 512000 kbps x 125 ms
= (512000 x 125) / 1000
= 64000

Be will be = (AR - CIR) x Tc
= (1500000 - 512000) x 125 ms
= 123500

Note that 1.5 Mbps is 1500000 bps and not 1536000.

Check out this very good post by Brian McGahan on FRTS:

And one from cisco

Kind regards,
Ahsan
