CoS on ACX Series Universal Access Routers Features Overview
The following key CoS features are supported on ACX Series Universal Access Routers:
- Physical interface-based classifiers at the [edit class-of-service interfaces interfaces-name] hierarchy level
- Fixed classification for all ingress packets traversing a logical interface to a single forwarding class. Fixed classification is supported on all interface types.
- EXP bits located in each MPLS label and used to encode the CoS value of a packet as it traverses a label-switched path (LSP). To configure global EXP bits, include the exp statement at the [edit class-of-service system-defaults classifiers] hierarchy level.
- Rewrite rules at the physical and logical interface levels including the following: IP type-of-service (ToS), DSCP, MPLS EXP bit value, and IEEE 802.1p bit value.
- Attachment of the following rewrite rules to the physical interface at the [edit class-of-service interfaces interface-name rewrite-rules] hierarchy level: IP ToS, DSCP, and IEEE 802.1p bit value.
- Rewrite rules for MPLS EXP bits on the logical interface
at the [edit class-of-service interfaces interface-name unit unit-number rewrite-rule] hierarchy
level.
Note: Fine-grained rewrite is not possible, even when you use multifield filters, because of the application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) limitation.
Queuing and scheduling features include:
- Support for up to eight forwarding classes.
- Support for up to eight egress queues per port.
- Internal buffer of 2 MB with per-egress queue buffer management.
- Three weighted random early detection (WRED) curves for TCP and one WRED curve for non-TCP. There are two fill levels and two drop probabilities per WRED curve; the drop probability corresponding to the first fill must be zero.
- Strict-priority and weighted deficit round-robin scheduling.
- Multiple strict-priority queues per port.
- Per-queue committed information rate (CIR) and peak information rate (PIR).
- Per-physical-port shaping.
Queue statistics features include:
- Per-egress-queue enqueue statistics in packets, bytes, packets per second (pps), and bits per second (bps).
- Per-egress-queue transmit statistics in packets, bytes, pps, and bps.
- Per-egress-queue drop statistics in packets and pps.
