Luis, Steinar is quite right, it depends. However, as an example, I am working now on a system that is using a GE-WAN interface from a Cisco 7606 PE pointing towards the CEs. It will be configured as a Multi-VRF interface, passing a number of streams of various customers' traffic. How fast the traffic may actually travel will be based on the Service Level Agreement between the individual customer and the provider, right up to the capacity of the entire physical interface. There is nothing typical unless the provider is selling services that replace present standard telco services, in which case maybe a "typical" speed might be 64k, 128k, T1 or the like. It would be controlled by something like the Cisco IOS rate-limit command or the policing command which limits the customer to a given throughput.
