Hi all, I have configured HTB classes on my public interface. I have split the bandwidth among two subclasses say 1:2 and 1:3. Lets say if I configure the rate limit of say 1:2 as 250kbps with a ceil setting of 1000kbps, I presume it means that the class can have bandwidth upto 1000kbps, provided the bandwidth is unused, if not it is assured a bandwidth of 250kbps. Is my understanding correct in this regards when it comes to unbounded classes? Please let me know, Thanks and Regards, Vinod C

When child class is out of bandwidth(ie the rate given to it) , it can borrow the bandwidth from the parent class upto its ceil limit, provided the bandwidth is unused. Is this correct?
