frame-relay be <excessive burst value>

Use the frame-relay be command to set the be (excessive burst) value for a Frame Relay sublink. The
value is in bits. Use the no form of this command to return to default.
Syntax Description
<excessive burst value> Specifies the excessive burst value (in bits) for the sublink.
Default Values
By default, the excessive burst value is set to 0 (no limit).
Applicable Platforms
This command applies to the NetVanta 1000R, 3000, 4000, and 5000 and Total Access 900 Series units.
Command History
Release 4.1 Command was introduced.
Functional Notes
The time interval is alwa ys one second, so this can also be considered bits per second. Shaping is
performed on a sliding one-second window to make maximum use of configured bandwidth. Note that
when both bc and be are non-zero, shaping is performed on the virtual circuit. The circuit is limited to the
sum of bc and be , and it is recommended that the sum always be greater than 8000.
Usage Examples
The following example configu res the Frame Relay sublink with an excessive burst value of 64,000 bits:
(config)#interface frame-relay 1.1
(config-fr 1.16)#frame-relay be 64000
