Motorola BSR 2000 manual Mab

Release 1.0 Service Class Commands

mab

The mab command specifies the Maximum Assigned Bandwidth (MAB) which is the amount of bandwidth a service class is permitted to use on an interface. It is expressed as a percentage of the total interface bandwidth capacity. The MAB of a service class is applied during admission control to determine whether to admit a new service flow and again by the packet schedulers to provide a class-based weighting to the scheduler. The no mab command restores the default value.

Note: For scheduling purposes, each service class gets its bandwidth based on its MAB fraction relative to other classes, not based on the absolute value of the MAB. For example, if there are only two active service classes and both have the same MAB, each service class would get 50% of the bandwidth. The absolute value of the MAB is only used for admission control not scheduling.
