I believe the true calculation for the interval (Tc) is Bc=CIR(Tc/1000). This web page over-simplifies it. I have read in varoius sources (Intergrating Voice and Data Network, and from Wendel Odom himself, that it's actually the above calculation. I have other problem wih CCO web pages also, especially Dialer Watch, CBAC, etc. I think Cisco is too big to manage :)
