I have no idea how ingress policing works on a 32mbps line. That is roughly 7 times as fast as mine. Note that I said "policing"; it is not shaping. 2. You write "100kbps" for the burst but the burst is expressed as a number of bits/bytes. So I would expect to receive an error if I actually entered "32mbps:100kbps". -Tom ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
