Please note that the burst analysis is done with 1 millisecond resolution by default. In our example, the Router is connected at 1GBit/s and it can receive more than the configured uplink bandwidth. This is shown in the display as a utilization of ">> 100%" and indicates that a burst may not be able to be handled by this uplink.
