BSR 2000 Configuration and Management Guide
Calculating MAB Percentages
The total percentage of combined MABs for all upstream or all downstream service
classes can not exceed 100%. If a user attempts to exceed this threshold, the BSR will
adjust the desired MAB percentage accordingly so it does not exceed 100%. For
example, the total combined upstream MABs is 70% as displayed in the following
output from the show cable service-class command.
Upstream Service Classes
Service Class
-------------------------------------------------
DefBEUp
DefRRUp
DefUGS
DefUGSAD
DefRTPS
DefNRTPS
DefEMUp
Total assigned bandwidth (mab sum): 70%
The remaining MAB available is 30%. The DefEMUp service class has a MAB of
10%. If a user attempts to change the MAB percentage for the DefEMUp service class
to 50%, the following output would be displayed with the show cable service-class
command reflecting that the additional 10% MAB requested for the DefEMUp
service class was not allowed by the BSR and the MAB for the DefEMUp service
class was adjusted downward to 40%.
