Rate Control Settings
The Rate Control Settings page lets you set the Committed Information
Rate (CIR) for bandwidth restrictions. The CIR is the fixed bandwidth, in
bits per second, for arriving or departing traffic.
The CIR can be used when different virtual connections share the same
physical path, and certain connections require higher bandwidths than
others. For example, a connection with a high proportion of video signals
could be assigned a higher CIR than other connections requiring less
bandwidth.
You can create, modify, or delete a rate control entry by following the
procedures in the following sections:
 “Create a Rate Control Entry,” next
 “Modify the Committed Rate” on page 252
 “Delete a Rate Control Entry” on page 253
