Cisco Rate Limit Calculator

Enter data rate in bits per second.
Also available human-friendly format like 10m (Mbps), 512k (Kbps), etc.

• This online tool calculates the normal burst and extended burst for use under the rate limit command. Enter the data rate (in bits per second). Also available human-friendly format like 10m (Mbps), 512k (Kbps), etc. The normal burst and extended burst are calculated automatically according to Cisco's recommendations. Note, the normal burst and extended burst are "bytes", while the CIR is in "bits".

• Calculations:
  Normal Burst = Speed(bit/s) / 8(bit/s) * 1,5sec
  Extended Burst = 2 * Normal Burst
