Service Meter QoS Policy Commands
Page 332 7210 SAS D, E, K OS Quality of Service Guide
In color-aware mode, following behavior is available:
• If the packet is pre-colored as in-profile (or also called as Green colored packets) then
depending on the burst size of the packet meter can either mark it in-profile or out-profile.
• If the packet is pre-colored as out-profile (also called as Yellow colored packets) then even
if the packet burst is lesser than the current available CBS, it would not be marked as in-
profile and remain as out-profile.
• If the packet burst is higher than the MBS then it would be marked as Red and would be
dropped by meter at ingress.
Default color-blind
Parameters color-mode — Specifies if the meter operates in color-aware or color-blind mode.
Values color-blind or color-aware
mbs
Syntax mbs size-in-kbits
no mbs
Context config>qos>sap-ingress>meter
Description Platforms Supported: 7210 SAS-E.
This command provides the explicit definition of the maximum amount of tokens allowed for a specific
meter. The value is given in Kilobits and overrides the default value for the context.
In case of trtcm, the maximum burst size parameter specifies the maximum burst size that can be transmitted
by the source at the PIR while complying with the PIR. If the transmitted burst is lower than the MBS value
then the packets are marked as out-profile by the meter to indicate that the traffic is not complying with CIR,
but complying with PIR.
In case of srTCM, the MBS parameter specifies the maximum burst size that can be transmitted by the
source while not complying with the CIR. The transmitted burst is lower than the MBS value then the
packets are marked as out-profile by the meter to indicate that the traffic is not complying with CIR.
If the packet burst is higher than MBS then packets are marked as red are dropped by the meter.
The no form of this command returns the MBS size assigned to the meter to the value.
Default 128Kbits
Parameters size-in-kbits — This parameter is an integer expression of the maximum number of Kilobits of buffering
allowed for the meter. For example, for a value of 100 KBits, enter the value 100.
Values 32 — 16384, default
