Be careful, this *doesn't* guarantee that remaining 5% is reserved for
management / routing, unless you explicitly police all the other classes. 
It stops you *reserving* it for other classes, but it doesn't stop those
other classes *using* it.

Much safer, IMO, to put a class (or classes) in for management / routing,
and then let the bandwidth reserved for these go back into the pool while
it's not being used.
