Bandwidth Profiles
By default, an E-Line or E-LAN service provides best-effort service for customer traffic on the UNI
ports. In some cases, such as when the UNI ports in an Ethernet service have different line rates, you
can specify bandwidth profiles and apply them to the UNI ports.
A bandwidth profile can specify values for Committed Information Rate (CIR), Committed Burst Size
(CBS), Excess Information Rate (EIR), Excess Burst Size (EBS), and single/dual-rate profile settings. You
can apply bandwidth profiles to all UNI ports in the service, or to selected UNI ports.
