Usage Information You must configure the peak rate and peak burst size using the same value: kilobits or
packets per second. Similarly, you must configure the committed rate and committed
burst size with the same measurement.
Peak rate refers to the maximum rate for traffic arriving or exiting an interface under
normal traffic conditions. Peak burst size indicates the maximum size of unused peak
bandwidth that is aggregated. This aggregated bandwidth enables brief durations of
burst traffic that exceeds the peak rate and committed burst.
Committed rate refers to the guaranteed bandwidth for traffic entering or leaving the
interface under normal network conditions. When traffic propagates at an average rate
that is less than or equal to the committed rate, it is considered to be green-colored or
coded. When the transmitted traffic falls below the committed rate, the bandwidth,
