I have a PFC2 on my 6509 but whenever i set the pir i
get the ff message:
Info: pir/max-burst ignored
What could this mean?

If i am selling a service for 256K, should i just use
a CIR of 256K or set a lower CIR (192K) and set PIR to
256K.
What I understand of the latter is you have guaranteed
192K but can burst to 256K. Is this correct? Can i go
more than 256K if i just set a CIR of 256K?

Thanks.
