Two rate three color meter

The two rate three color meter shown in figure 2.5 is typically used for implementing the corresponding three color marker defined in [RFC2698].

Figure 2.5: Two rate three color meter.

trTCM uses the same parameters as DLB, namely:

Parameter Unit Description
cbs Bytes Committed burst size
cir bps Committed information rate
mpu Bytes Minimum policed unit
pbs Bytes Peak burst size
pir bps Peak information rate

Only mpu is optional, all other parameters are required.

The functions for testing a two rate three color meter are described in the previous section.
