BAG Rate
BAG stands for Bandwidth Allocation Gap, this is one of the main features of the AFDX protocol. This is the maximum rate data can be sent, and it is guaranteed to be sent at that interval. When setting the BAG rate for each VL, care must be taken so there will be enough bandwidth for other VL's and the total speed cannot exceed 100Mbit/s.

Famous quotes containing the words bag and/or rate:
“I couldn’t find the spot where Frank had hidden the bag with the clothes. You can’t imagine how cold I was until I found them. You know, I’m beginning to understand why ghosts moan so in this sort of weather.”
—Lester Cole (1904–1985)
“At this very moment,... the most frightful horrors are taking place in every corner of the world. People are being crushed, slashed, disembowelled, mangled; their dead bodies rot and their eyes decay with the rest. Screams of pain and fear go pulsing through the air at the rate of eleven hundred feet per second. After travelling for three seconds they are perfectly inaudible. These are distressing facts; but do we enjoy life any the less because of them? Most certainly we do not.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
