Re: cbwfq logic help

Control traffic does not fall in class-default as per my understanding,
Remaining bandwidth other than reservation will be used for routing
protocols and other control traffic.

Class-default is unspecified user traffic, but there is one catch whatever
QoS you do your control traffic will take preferance over your other defined
and undefined traffics.
Hope somebody correct me if I am wrong :)
