[RPRWG] ConservativeRate SM questions

[Guoliang Wu <guoliang.wu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello RPR experts:

I have some questions regarding the conservative rate adjust State Machine
from the released RPR standard (802.17-2004.pdf, Table 10.9, pages 258 - 
259).

1. Row 5: the condition is
     localFairRate/localWeight >= unreservedRate[myRi] - rampUpCoef.
   It seems having some typo in the right side, because unreservedRate 
is in bytes and
    rampUpCoef is a pure number.
2.  Row 5 and Row 16: the allowedRate is calculated twice in the
      two states, first in Row 5 as
       allowedRate += (maxAllowedRate - allowedRate) / rampUpCoef;
   then after transiting from CGST state to FINAL state,
         allowedRate = Min(unreservedRate[myRi], localFairRate);
    The later calculation invalids the early one. One of the 
calculations should be
    removed or changed.
    
Hope someone can clarify. Your help will be greatly appreciated!
