    摘要: A method may include monitoring available aggregate bandwidth of a network element and determining if the available aggregate bandwidth is sufficient to communicate traffic at a rate equal to an aggregate sum of committed information rates for a plurality of classes of traffic. If the available aggregate bandwidth is sufficient to communicate traffic at the rate equal to the aggregate sum of committed information rates for a plurality of classes of traffic, traffic may be communicated for each of the plurality of classes in accordance with the respective committed information rate for each class. Otherwise, traffic may be communicated for each of the plurality of classes in an amount proportional to the respective committed information rate for a particular class and the available aggregate bandwidth.
