In the past, the MAE ATM switches ran ABR where you specified the MCR and traffic was policed at a PCR of 2xMCR, although almost no one at the MAEs actually used ABR on their connections. Almost everyone used VBR-nrt and many did not even realize that the use of ABR could have been beneficial. With "best effort" PVCs, this really becomes moot although these are still technically ABR.
