Darren:

To "flag" traffic over some level of utilization, set MAXBYTES to the value
in bytes that you want to set as your "warning" level.  Add ABSMAX to the
configuration for the circuit and set its value to the maximum traffic in
bytes that the circuit can support.  This will generate a graph with a
dotted red line at your maximum bytes.

One caution the percent shown below the graph is based on MAXBYTES.
