AT&T's policy for measured burstable service looks something like this: The Provider Access Router is polled every 5 minutes for total octets in and total octets out. Data is divided by 300 (the number of seconds in a 5 minute period), giving two averages (one in, one out) for the previous 5 minute period These averages become data points, which are tracked over the course of the customer's monthly billing cycle. Top 5% of the data points are disregarded (be they IN or OUT). We bill at the 95% level of usage Michelle Truman
