I'm not sure who the provider is but 0 CIR sounds like "Sprint-speak". Most
service providers won't allow or recommends against 0 CIR but on the other
hand, Sprint pushes it.
We are currently using 0 CIR and I think the quality has been good and we
haven't had a whole lot of dropped packets. In fact, I think they still
guarantee 99% delivery up to port speed which is pretty good specially
compared to most providers 99.9% delivery up to CIR and no guarantee beyond
that.
