Sample network QoS configuration

Workflow to configure network QoS

Note: In this configuration, the following services are provisioned:

  • Service 1: IES for Internet access, which requires a CIR of 10 Mb/s and a PIR of 100 Mb/s

  • Service 2: VLL service for FTP connectivity between Site A and Site B, which requires a CIR of 10 Mb/s and a PIR of 20 Mb/s

  • Service 3: VPLS for video-conference service over sites A, B, and C, which requires a CIR of 20 Mb/s and a PIR of 50 Mb/s

  • Service 4: VPLS for voice traffic, which requires a CIR of 10 Mb/s and a PIR of 20 Mb/s

The cumulative rate at site A needs to be limited to 70 Mb/s.

The following high-level steps are required to create the Figure 70-19, Example of a service configuration using QoS configuration with rate limiting using QoS at Site A. Similar steps are required to configure QoS for Subscriber 1 on Sites B and C:

 
1 

Configure a scheduler policy.

2 

Create Subscriber 1.

3 

Create the aggregation scheduler for Subscriber 1 on site A and assign ingress and egress scheduler policies to the aggregation scheduler.

4 

Create IES, VLL, and VPLS for Subscriber 1.

  • Specify sites for the services.

  • Specify access interfaces for the sites.

  • Specify the aggregation scheduler policy for the access interfaces.

  • Bind the services to tunnels for transport through the IP/MPLS network.
