HQoS Feature support

The following features are supported in NetIron 5.5.00. The following documentation supplements
the Multi-Service IronWare QoS and Traffic Management Configuration Guide.

HQoS for VPLS traffic overview

This feature allows you to support HQoS for VPLS traffic, where the traffic could be to or from the
VPLS cloud. The HQoS map is applied on the MPLS uplink. Traffic coming from a VPLS end-point
and going out of the MPLS uplink will be processed for HQoS.

Feature highlights

HQoS was previously supported for “local VPLS” only. This feature is an enhancement to allow
HQoS for VPLS in addition to local VPLS. A new match condition containing the VPLS ID and the
VPLS Peer IP address has been added to the HQoS map command.

Configuring HQoS for VPLS traffic

These steps assume the following topology:

PE11 and PE12 routers are MCT nodes

PE3 (1.1.1.2) is the remote PE router

PE11 and PE12 are connected through MPLS

1. Use the following commands to configure HQoS policy on Node PE11

Brocade (config)# HQOS scheduler-policy policy-1 level level-0

Brocade (config-hqos-scheduler-policy policy-1)# shaper-rate 1000000

Brocade (config-hqos-scheduler-policy policy-1)# shaper-burst-size 128

Brocade (config-hqos-scheduler-policy policy-1)# scheduler-type strict

Brocade (config-hqos-scheduler-policy policy-1)# scheduler-flow flow-1-0

scheduler- input 0 scheduler-policy policy-2

Brocade (config-hqos-scheduler-policy policy-1)# scheduler-flow flow-1-1

scheduler- input 1 scheduler-policy policy-2

Brocade (config-hqos-scheduler-policy policy-1)#!
