Friends,

If you have 50 percent of the bandwidth reserve for a particular traffic
using cbwfq, but at all time that traffic is only consuming 25 percent,
then are those additional bandwidth available for other traffic ? Or are
they dedicated and cannot be use?  Is it true that the default class and
any configure class uses only 75% of the capacity of the line?  The other
25 reserve for critical management traffic?  What are those critical
management traffic?

Thanks.

CBWFQ could guarantee bandwidth and then police it to the same value
even when there isn't congestion.

Eg.

Policy-map blah
           class iptraffic
           bandwidth xxx
           police xxx

Umair,

If they wanted you to use CBWFQ for you first question, they would have
worded the question more like this.....

"During times of congestion, IP traffic gets 60% of available bandwidth
on a link, DLSw gets 20%, etc."


For the second question, it is obvious that they wan't you to limit the
bandwidth that PING uses to 5% and drop anything above the limit -
probably to prevent DOS attacks.  PQ, CQ, and CBWFQ would not accomplish
this.
