Table 68, or Table 69 for the egress QoS Profile #1. This is regardless of the 
parameter value the edited profiles have at that point in time.
• A maximum of 128 ingress QoS profiles and 128 egress QoS profiles can be created 
on the system.
• The values of the ingress per-class re-assembly timer are configured in the ingress 
QoS profile. 
• The mapping of the system forwarding classes to the MLPPP Classes are configured 
in the egress QoS profile. There is a many-to-one relationship between the system FC 
and an MLPPP class. See Table 67 for the mapping when one of the three predefined 
4-class egress QoS profiles is selected.
• The maximum size for each MLPPP class queue in units of msec at the available 
bundle rate is configured in the egress QoS profile. This is referred to as max in 
Figure 51 and as max-queue-size in CLI. The out-of-profile threshold for an MLPPP 
class queue, referred to as oop in Figure 51, is not directly configurable and is set to 
50% of the maximum queue size rounded up to the nearest higher integer value.
• The MLPPP class queue scheduling parameters is configured in the egress QoS 
profile. The minimum information rate, referred to as MIR in Figure 52 and mir in 
CLI, applies to Class 1 queue only. The MIR parameter value is entered as a 
percentage of the available bundle rate. The WRR weight, referred to as W1, W2, and 
W3 in Figure 52 and weight in CLI, applies to class 1, class 2, and class 3 queues. 
W1 in Figure 52 is not configurable and is internally set to a value of 1 such that Class 
1 queue shares 1% of the available bundle rate when the sum of W1, W2, and W3 
equals 100. W2 and W3 weights are integer values and are user configurable such 
that Class 2 queue shares and Class 3 queue shares of the available bundle rate.
• The user applies the ingress and egress QoS profiles to a 4-class MLPPP bundle for 
the configured QoS parameter values to take effect on the bundle.
• The following operations require the bundles associated with a QoS profile to be 
shutdown to take effect.
→ A change of the numbered ingress or egress QoS profile associated with a 
bundle.
→ A change of the bundle associated ingress or egress QoS profile from default 
profile to a numbered profile and vice-versa.
• The following operations can be performed without shutting down the associated 
bundles:
→ Changes to any parameters in the ingress and egress QoS profiles.
