ETX Traffic Management

• Extremely flexible classification:– Port, VLAN-ID, P-bit, TOS-DSCP, EtherType, MAC SA/DA and IP SA/DA

• Hierarchical-QoS (HQOS) with flow level TM:– CIR/EIR Policing per flow for differentiated services – Assuring SLA in congested links - shaping per EVC or EVC.cos– Up to 8 queues per flow with Strict Priority and WFQ scheduling– Simplifying operation with powerful bandwidth profiles


The value of advanced TM

• Increased revenues using ‘Intelligent’ over subscription

– Multiple services from same port - EVC– Higher bandwidth utilization - EIR– Better utilization of network resources

allows• Maintain customer satisfaction with

differentiated services– Different Drop probability, delay and

jitter at different cost• Reduce churn by ensuring SLA

– Per service shaping ensures bandwidth per customer (EVC, EVC.CoS)

Summary of available Ethernet OAM mechanismsHardware

OAM


Hardware OAM vs. Software OAM

Feature Software OAM

Hardware OAM

Benefits of Hardware-Powered OAM

OAM agility X √ OAM rate only limited by line speed

Multi-flow monitoring X √ Monitor multiple concurrent flows simultaneously (large number of MEPs)

Fast detection of connectivity failure X √ Fast failure restoration <50msec

Measurements of real frames as well as synthetic frames

X √ Detects loss of even a single frame

Fault management - Loopback Options for Service Verification

• Network troubleshooting and throughput testing:– Simultaneous loopbacks of many flows on both network and user sides– Flexible criteria, per service and CoS (EVC.cos)– Non-Intrusive “always on” operation with no need to configure the remote

end– Line rate performance

• L2 and L3 loopbacks– MAC & IP Address swapping– Multiple independent SLA monitoring and test instances per unit

Fault PropagationBased on OAM Loss Of Connectivity

• Network failure propagation to user ports– User ports are turned off upon Loss-of Connectivity (LOC) or Remote

Defect Indication (RDI)• Customer equipment senses the failure and immediately reroutes to

alternative path– Shortens restoration time by triggering restoration much faster

than native routing protocols
