Support for Cos per access on 7206 as PE

adarsh
Level 1
Level 1

We are exploring the possibility of configuring QOS policies for the main interface, which has multiple sub-interfaces. I want to know if a common policy applied on the main interface will be applicable to the subinterfaces too. This makes all layer 2 connections under the interface subject to the QoS policy. Each class within the policy will operate on the aggregate class traffic across all the layer 2 connections. If the Qos policy is at the full interface rate then a single tier policy can be applied directly to the main interface. If the required speed is less than the interface then a hierarchical policy can be applied. In the output direction and parent policy and a child policy are constructed. The child policy matched on each of the Qos classed and provided the necessary treatment. The parent policy is applied to the main interface. IT matched on the default class (i.e. all traffic), applied a shaper to limit the output bandwidth and also is where the child policy is applied. In the inbound direction the same structure is repeated except in this case the parent policy used a policer rather than a shaper.

Hi,

Applying a service-policy on the main interface provides a shared QoS policy for all the subinterfaces. If you have a class for IPP 5 for example, all the IPP 5 traffic send over all the subinterfaces will be in the same queue.

Thanks! Laurent for your response, however things are still unclear to me. Let me elaborate it in context of my original post. Not sure if the following configs (for policy and interface) is supported on Cisco platform (7200 preferably):

-----------------------------------------

Given below is the sample of policy and interface config:

Hi,

I don't see any issue so next step is to test it may be with the last release to have the latest QoS feature ;-)

Laurent.

Thanks! Laurent.

I referred a link on "heirarchial QOS config" which you posted for someone's query in the same forum. Shall let you know if i have any/few queries.

Thanks!

Thanks! for your reply Laurent,

Here's the briefing on tests and few queries in the end, see if you can spare few minutes to clarify.

•The main physical interface is policed at 20Mbps with the class default in the parent policy map.

•Child policy is configured in the main physical interface.

•No policies are applied in the sub interfaces. Different VRFs corresponding to different customers are configured on each of the sub interfaces. Same IP addresses are assigned for all the sub interfaces for the testing.

•The child policy in the main interface has 4 classes defined and each class is policed to 5Mbps which different actions defined for in contract and out of contract traffic. The config is below:

R#sh policy-map interface gig0/3

Have attached the config and shall be putting in next post as well to make things handy.

Queries:

•Will the total BW for all 'ef' marked packets from all the subinterfaces be policed to 5 Mbps or is it per subinterface?

•In either case, how do I see the BW consumption for each subinterface?

•How do I verify intercos bursting in this case?

Regards

Hi Laurent,

As mentioned in previous post here's the config (same as per the attachment uploaded earlier) from the interfaces in question:

R#sh run int gig0/3.2

Building configuration...

Current configuration : 153 bytes

!

interface GigabitEthernet0/3.2

encapsulation dot1Q 2

ip vrf forwarding VRF1

ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.252

end

R#sh run int gig0/3.3

Building configuration...

Current configuration : 153 bytes

!

interface GigabitEthernet0/3.3

encapsulation dot1Q 3

ip vrf forwarding VRF2

ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.252

end

R#sh run int gig0/3.4

Building configuration...

Current configuration : 153 bytes

!

interface GigabitEthernet0/3.4

encapsulation dot1Q 4

end

Hi,

•Will the total BW for all 'ef' marked packets from all the subinterfaces be policed to 5 Mbps or is it per subinterface?

A: Total Bw will be policed to 5 Mbps.

•In either case, how do I see the BW consumption for each subinterface?

A: you can't as the classes are common to all VLANs.

•How do I verify intercos bursting in this case?

A: Not sure to understand what you mean here..

Laurent.
