How to Configure Advanced-Mode DSG Issue 1.2
Advanced-mode DSG Issue 1.2 entails support for DSG tunnel configuration, to include global, WAN-side,
and interface-level settings in support of Multicast.
Configuring the Default Multicast Quality of Service
According to DOCSIS 3.0, you must configure the default multicast quality of service (MQoS) when using
the MQoS. This also applies to the DSG, which uses the MQoS by associating a service class name with the
tunnel.
If the default MQoS is not configured, the DSG tunnel service class configuration is rejected. Similarly, if no
DSG tunnel uses the MQoS, you are prompted to remove the default MQoS.
The CMTS selects the primary downstream channel to forward the multicast traffic when the default MQoS
is configured and there is no matching MQoS group configuration. Otherwise, the wideband interface is used
to forward the multicast traffic.
