4.2.2 Traffic Management Support
An aggregate egress rate limiter can be associated to an Epipe service. The rate 
limiter applies to traffic associated to the service which egresses on regular ports 
(network ports). Committed rate and peak rate are configured, optionally, committed 
and peak burst size can be configured.
Ingress and egress network QoS policies are applied to an Epipe service with 
respect to the Pseudo-Wire (PW). They apply respectively to traffic received on the 
PW and to traffic sent in the PW.
An ingress QoS policy is applied to an E-pipe service with respect to traffic received 
from the SAP.
A separate QoS policy is applied to self-generated traffic in the scope of an E-pipe 
service.
4.2.3 Pseudo-Wire Redundancy
A Pseudo-Wire over MPLS is protected for failures in the network, by the virtue of the 
MPLS tunnel adapting to the IGP topology. An MPLS tunnel is established along the 
IGP shortest path. In case an LSR fails, the tunnel is broken and will be 
re-established along the newest IGP shortest path.
