Everything drops packets if you fill the buffers... Rate limiting vs Traffic Shaping is about intent and QoS in my experience. YMMV Deepak Jain AiNET -----Original Message----- From: owner-nanog () merit edu [mailto:owner-nanog () merit edu]On Behalf Of Christopher J.

From what I've read, Traffic Shaping is a better option since it doesn't drop packets. Just curious as to what the opinions are. Regards, Christopher J.
