Isn't limit-at more of carving a reserved chunk of bandwidth out for the rule? I.e limit-at=120k will make sure this is always got 120k ?

Bursting, is based on "average" data usage. If the average data usage
goes over the burst-threshold, then the customer will not be able to
reach the burst speed.  So if you burst threshold should be set
typically to slightly lower than the limit-at.  That way, once they
"average' over that burst threshold, they can no longer reach the
bust-limit.  So then they will stay at their limit-at.

Close...not "limit-at", though.  This should read "max-limit" in the
places you have limit-at.
