Purpose TDM traffic • All services have the same QoS • Guaranteed bandwidth • Circuits (one E1 -> one i/f -> reserved capacity) • Provisioning is inherent in equipment commissioning (Cabling and cross connection) • NE performance monitoring: all traffic in an E1 i/f has the same performance.
Packet traffic • QoS differentiation • Overbooking • Packets (many Services in one i/f
sharing same capacity) • Equipment commissioning + Service Configuration, SLA, QoS differentiation • Service oriented and E2E Performance monitoring
Network centric

Quality of Service Quality of Service (QoS) implies the ability of the network to provide better or “special” service to a set of /application. How QoS is done?
Classification Define QoS level by looking up the received packet header

Marker Marking QoS level at packet header (802.1p,IP TOS/DS/IPPrec)
Policer Protecting network resources by preventing usage in excess of guaranteed bandwidth (bps)

Total UNI BW
Goals of “QoS” and SLA enforcement 1. Delay-sensitive traffic gets through with the minimum delay and frame jitter (= delay variation) 2. The CIR for each service is always delivered according to SLA quality targets 3. Each node gets a fair treatment regarding the EIR 4. Congestion avoidance respects the SLA – –
CIR is guaranteed to the Availability objective of its SLA Fairness among nodes is ensured

MWR Experts enabling workshop 12th-16th October 2009
Shortcomings of “NOT CET” transport • Lack of UNI concept and (mostly) SLA enforcement mechanisms
– Usually cannot guarantee CIR to any single nor fairness among s – Cannot implement real CAC calculations to ensure service sustainability – Is extremely dangerous to overbook unless all traffic is “EIR” and fairness is not a primary requirement
• Lack of proper L2 OAM – Difficult or impossible to troubleshoot – Difficult or impossible to isolate faults or troublesome spots – No per-service FM/PM

QoS handling in FlexiPacket Microwave QoS is implemented both on FlexiPacket Radio and FlexiPacket Hub. FlexiPacket Hub s five priority queues, each one associated to one of the following Class of Services (CoS) that are EF1 (Expedited Forwarding) EF Control and EF2 AF Control and AF1 (Assured Forwarding) AF2 AF3 and BE At the ingress of an UNI/NNI port traffic is marked/processed using 3 bits (P) that define priority and color Priority Queue CoS

Scheduling and congestion control
Connection ission Control (CAC) What is CAC? • CAC (empowered by Netviewer with path manager) enforces an end-to-end guarantee QoS • A set of actions taken during the connection set-up phase, in order to determine whether the system has enough spare resources for the new connection. • Maintain the required by the new connection SLA without affecting the SLA of already existed connections • End-to-end connection request can only be accepted if sufficient resources are available at each one of the network elements on the way of the connection. • The bandwidth will be managed at any potential congestion point. • CCM (OAM Connectivity Check Messages) packets will be prioritized in the control queues and the bandwidth will be reserved when CAC is calculated
