Overview of the Ingress Classification and Scheduling
Overview of the Ingress Classification and Scheduling
The ASR 1000 Series Routers contain a variety of SIPs and SPAs with a combination of low and high
speed interfaces ranging from DS1 to 10 Gbps. Due to a variety of SPAs inserted in the ASR 1000 Series
Router, both the Carrier Card (CC) and the SPA get oversubscribed in the ingress or egress direction.
Currently, all the existing components of the ASR 1000 Series Router such as CC and ESP, prioritize the
traffic in the egress direction. To resolve the oversubscription issue on the ingress side, ingress
classification and scheduling have been introduced in Cisco IOS XE Software, Release 3.1S.
This technology provides the following advantages:
• Classifies and schedules the packets marked as high priority.
• Reduces the latency and jitters for packets (example video and voice) classifed as high priority.
Prerequisites for Ingress Classification and Scheduling
Table 27-2 shows the hardware and software compatibility prerequisites for the ingress classification and
scheduling feature.
