The context is networking, specifically calculating how much bandwidth is required for an application or set of applications: provisioning the network. If a network has too much bandwidth, it is said to be over provisioned. Or over-provisioned. Or overprovisioned. I like the first construction. The marketing guys like hyphenated. Some Cisco books use the third. In a quick Google search, I couldn't find any real definitions, and usage seems to be pretty equally divided. Anyone else have a preference?
