multipoint shared traffic, but that is discussed in the following section.) The shared queue
parameters that define the relative operation of the forwarding class queues are derived from the
Shared Queue policy defined in the QoS CLI node. Figure 2 demonstrates shared unicast queuing.
SAP or SLA profile instance multipoint queuing is not affected by enabling shared queuing.
Multipoint queues are still created as defined in the ingress SAP QoS policy and ingress
multipoint packets only traverse the ingress forwarding plane a single time.
Enabling shared queuing may affect ingress performance due to double packet processing through
the service and shared queues.
