shaping target rate
** hi , In class based traffic shaping when we shape at the peak rate using the shape peak command , there is differing Target Rate and Average Rate in the policy-map output.
I would like to know the know the significance of the differing Target Rate and Average Rate values. As i understand the shape peak command enables transmission up to the maximum rate each Tc interval , which would be the Target rate but then what about Average Rate?.
The other problem is when we apply class based adaptive shaping to a frame-relay interface shouldn’t the policy-map output show adaptive shaping active?.
The following is the partial configuration .
interface Serial0/0 encapsulation frame-relay service-policy output SHAPE
policy-map SHAPE class class-default shape peak 1024000 32768 16384 shape adaptive 384000 !
The following is the policy-map output
Class-map: class-default (match-any) 514 packets, 63610 bytes 5 minute offered rate 0 bps, drop rate 0 bps Match: any Traffic Shaping *Target/Average* Byte Sustain Excess Interval Increment *Rate* Limit bits/int bits/int (ms) (bytes) 1536000/1024000 6144 32768 16384 32 6144
