drop-profile

Syntax

drop-profile (profile-name | variable);

Hierarchy Level

[edit dynamic-profiles profile-name class-of-service schedulers scheduler-name drop-profile-map loss-priority (any | low | medium-low | medium-high | high) protocol (any | non-tcp | tcp)]

Release Information

Statement introduced before JUNOS Release 7.4.

The [edit dynamic-profiles profile-name] hierarchy added in JUNOS Release 9.3.

The $junos-cos-scheduler-dropfile-low, $junos-cos-scheduler-dropfile-medium-low, $junos-cos-scheduler-dropfile-medium-high, $junos-cos-scheduler-dropfile-high, and $junos-cos-scheduler-dropfile-any internal variable added in JUNOS Release 9.4.

Description

Within the drop-profile map, specify the name of the drop profile to use for random early detection (RED) for a specific packet-loss priority (PLP) level and protocol type. A drop profile maps a fill level (fullness of a queue) to a drop probability (probability that a packet will be dropped). When a packet arrives, RED checks the queue fill level. If the fill level corresponds to a nonzero drop probability, the RED algorithm determines whether to drop the arriving packet.

You enable RED by applying a drop profile to a scheduler.

You configure drop profiles statically (at the [edit class-of-service drop-profiles] hierarchy level).

Options

profile-name—Name of the drop profile.

variable—One of the following JUNOS internal variable that is replaced with a value obtained from the RADIUS server when a subscriber authenticates over the subscriber interface to which the subscriber access dynamic profile is attached:
