Avaya Communication Manager Administrator's Manual page 69

The bandwidth usage numbers shown above assume 6 bytes for Multilink Point-to-Point Protocol (MP)
or Frame Relay Forum (FRF), 12 Layer 2 (L2) header, and 1 byte for the end-of-frame flag on MP and
Frame Relay frames for a total of 7 byte headers only. They do not account for silence suppression or
header compression techniques, which might reduce the actual bandwidth. For other types of networks
(such as Ethernet or ATM) or for cases where there is a lot of silence suppression or header compression
being used, the network may be better modeled by administering the CAC-BL limits in terms of number
of connections rather than bandwidth used.
Instructions
NOTE:
All DIRECT links must be administered first, and INDIRECT links administered last.
