LABEL

DESCRIPTION

 

 

Class

Select cbr (constant bit rate) to specify fixed (always-on) bandwidth for voice or data traffic.

 

Select ubr (unspecified bit rate) for applications that are non-time sensitive, such as e-mail.

 

Select rt-vbr(real time variable bit rate) or nrt-vbr(non real time variable bit rate) for bursty

 

traffic and bandwidth sharing with other applications. Select abr (available bit rate) for file

 

transfers and other bursty, non-real time traffic.

 

 

PCR

Divide the DSL line rate (bps) by 424 (the size of an ATM cell) to find the Peak Cell Rate (PCR).

 

This is the maximum rate at which the sender can send cells. PCR applies with all of the ATM

 

traffic classes. Type the PCR here.

 

 

CDVT

Cell Delay Variation Tolerance (CDVT) is the accepted tolerance of the difference between a

 

cell’s transfer delay and the expected transfer delay. CDVT applies with all of the ATM traffic

 

classes. Type the CDVT here.

 

 

SCR/MCR

The Sustained Cell Rate (SCR) sets the average cell rate (long-term) that can be transmitted.

 

Type the SCR, which must be less than the PCR. SCR applies with the rt-vbrand nrt-vbr

 

traffic classes.

 

Minimum Cell Rate (MCR) is the minimum rate at which the sender can send cells. MCR

 

applies with the abr traffic class.

 

 

BT/NRM

Burst Tolerance (BT) sets a maximum number of cells that the port is guaranteed to handle

 

without any discards. Type the BT here. BT applies with the rt-vbrand nrt-vbrtraffic classes.

 

The Number of Resource Management (NRM) cells sets the maximum number of cells a

 

source may send for each forward Resource Management cell. Type the NRM here. NRM

 

applies with the abr traffic class.
