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

Configuring CoS-Based Packet Statistics

Configuring CoS-Based Packet Statistics

Note For IEEE 802.1Q (QinQ) enabled interfaces, CoS accounting is based only on the CoS value of the outer metro tag imposed by the service provider. The CoS value inside the packet sent by the customer network is not considered for CoS accounting.

To enable CoS-based packet statistics on an interface, use the interface configuration level command defined in Table 12-7.

Table 12-7 CoS-Based Packet Statistics Command

Command

Purpose

 

 

ML_Series(config-if)# cos

Enables CoS-based packet statistics to be recorded at the specific

accounting

interface and for all the subinterfaces of that interface. This

 

command is supported only in interface configuration mode and not

 

subinterface configuration mode.

 

The no form of the command disables the statistics.

 

 

After configuring CoS-based packet statistics on the ML-Series card, the statistics can be viewed through a variety of show commands. To display this information, use one of the commands in Table 12-8in EXEC mode.

a FastEthernet subinterface. POS subinterfaces are not

 

eligible.

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.
