Chapter 12 Configuring Quality of Service on the ML-Series Card

Configuring Multicast Priority Queuing QoS

Multicast Priority Queuing QoS Restrictions

The following restrictions apply to multicast priority queuing QoS:

•The bandwidth allocation and utilization configured for multicast priority queuing traffic is global and applies to all the ports on the ML-Series card, both POS and Fast Ethernet, regardless of whether these ports carry multicast priority queuing traffic. The rate of traffic can be reduced for all ports on the ML-Series card when this feature is configured. Default multicast traffic uses bandwidth only on the ports where it egresses, not globally like multicast priority queuing.

•Multicast priority queuing QoS is supported only for Layer 2 bridging.

•The ML-Series card supports a maximum of two multicast priority queuing classes.

•Unlike the rest of the ML-Series card QoS, multicast priority queuing QoS is not part of the Cisco IOS MQC.

•Priority-mcast bandwidth allocation is per port.

Configuring Multicast Priority Queuing QoS

To configure a priority class for multicast traffic, use the global configuration cos priority-mcastcommand defined in Table 12-5.

ONS 15310-CL, ONS 15310-MA, Cisco ONS 15310-MA specifications

Cisco Systems has long been a leader in networking and telecommunications technology, and among its impressive lineup of products, the Cisco ONS 15310 series stands out as an essential solution for optical networking. This series includes models such as the ONS 15310-MA, ONS 15310-CL, and ONS 15310-CA, each designed to meet the diverse needs of service providers and enterprises seeking to enhance their optical transport networks.

The Cisco ONS 15310-MA is an advanced multi-service platform designed for metropolitan area networks. It facilitates the seamless transport of data, voice, and video over optical networks. One of its main features is its ability to support a variety of interfaces, including Ethernet, SONET/SDH, and Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM), allowing users to integrate multiple services into a single platform. Additionally, the ONS 15310-MA supports advanced traffic management and Quality of Service (QoS) features to prioritize critical applications and ensure consistent performance.

The ONS 15310-CL variant is tailored for more specific applications, providing enhanced capabilities aimed at delivering carrier-grade services. It features a robust architecture that accommodates high-capacity traffic without compromising reliability. This model emphasizes low power consumption and a compact design, making it suitable for deployment in space-constrained environments. The ONS 15310-CL also supports a wide range of optical interfaces, making it highly flexible for various network configurations.

In terms of technologies, the Cisco ONS 15310 series leverages Optical Transport Network (OTN) capabilities, providing high efficiency and greater bandwidth utilization. OTN technology enables efficient error correction and adds resilience to the network through its built-in protection mechanisms. Furthermore, the series supports seamless integration with existing IP/MPLS networks, creating a cohesive infrastructure as organizations evolve their networking requirements.

One of the defining characteristics of the ONS 15310 series is its focus on scalability. Network operators can start with a modest deployment and gradually expand capacity as demand grows. This adaptability is complemented by Cisco's comprehensive management and monitoring tools, providing operators with real-time insights into network performance and facilitating proactive management.

In conclusion, the Cisco ONS 15310-MA and ONS 15310-CL models represent sophisticated solutions for modern optical networks. With their versatile features, advanced technologies, and robust design, they empower service providers and enterprises to build resilient, high-capacity networks that meet the demands of today’s data-driven world.
