Overview of service ingress policy on 7210 SAS-K

fc be
meter 3
unknown-meter 3
exit
exit
----------------------------------------------
On execution of the command "configure qos sap-ingress <id> meter 11 multipoint create", FC
"be" unknown-unicast traffic type will continue to use meter 3 and broadcast and multicast traffic
type will use meter “11”.
In the above example, if initially a broadcast-meter was configured in the sap-ingress policy and
then followed by execution of the command "configure qos sap-ingress <id> meter 11
multipoint create", then FC be changes to use meter “11” for multicast traffic and broadcast
traffic continue to use meter “3” for unknown-unicast traffic and meter “3” for unicast traffic.
In the above example, if the user executes "configure qos sap-ingress <id> fc be no unknown-
meter", then meter "3" is used for all traffic types classified to FC “be”. But, if the default meter
"11" is defined in the policy, then FC “be” uses meter “11” for BUM traffic.
Service Ingress Meter Selection Rules for 7210 SAS-D and E
The following are rules for meter selection by different traffic types under various configurations
for VPLS services:
• In the default policy, only meter “1” is defined. All FC and all traffic types use meter “1”
by default. Meter “11” is not created by default and is not available for use.
Sample configuration:
*7210-SAS>config>qos# sap-ingress 1 create // Default policy
*7210-SAS>config>qos>sap-ingress$ info
----------------------------------------------
num-qos-classifiers 2
meter 1 create
exit
----------------------------------------------
*7210-SAS>config>qos>sap-ingress$
The following describes the usage of meters when meter in a VPLS service “11” is not configured
in the policy:
• If a FC is created without explicit meters, the default meter “1” is used for unicast traffic
and for multipoint traffic types (such as broadcast, multicast and unknown-unicast traffic).
• If a FC is created with an explicit unicast meter, that meter is used for unicast traffic and
for multipoint traffic types (such as broadcast, multicast and unknown-unicast traffic).
