Not 100% sure exactly what you're asking.

limit-at is the guaranteed bandwidth.  max-limit is the max bandwidth allowed, 
as long as it is available.  So a connection can use up to max-limit, but 
during congestion periods is guaranteed no less than limit-at.  (This is 
assuming you did your sums right and didn't oversubscribe your available 
bandwidth when you set up these numbers.)

Assuming the 18/1 figure is for your interface, the sums you have to do is to 
make sure that data limit-at times number of data connections, plus VOIP 
limit-at times number of VOIP connections, does not exceed 1M (assuming I have 
the traffic directions correct).  That is not many connections.  You can't run 
more than two VOIP sessions without reducing your data limit-at to 256 or lower.
