Example: Arbitrary Interface Groups Hierarchical Policy Configuration

[Contents] [Prev] [Next] [Index] [Report an Error]

In this example, there are four terminated sessions and their corresponding IP interfaces are I1, I2, I3, and I4. Figure 14 shows the following:

Sessions I1 and I2 are for the same subscriber: I1 carries only voice traffic and I2 carries all other traffic for this subscriber
Sessions I3 and I4 are for another subscriber.
Voice traffic has a contracted minimum of 64 Kbps, but the combined voice and other traffic for each subscriber has a contracted maximum of 1 Mbps.
Interfaces I1-I4 are interfaces where you can attach policies.
Figure 14: Interface Stack for Arbitrary Interface Groups

This example uses the following:

At I1 and I3:
- VOICE_RATE, Committed Rate: 64 Kbps
- Peak Rate: 0 Mbps
- Committed Action: transmit unconditional
- Conformed Action: drop
- Exceeded Action: drop
At I2 and I4:
- No policer configured
- I1 and I2 feed into a single policer with the following configuration: AGG, Committed Rate: 1 Mbps, Peak Rate: 0 Mbps, Committed Action: transmit, Conformed Action: drop, Exceeded Action: drop

Create an aggregate rate limit that can be shared across multiple interfaces. Create an external parent group to hold this rate limit.host1(config)#rate-limit-profile AGG two-rate hierarchical host1(config-rate-limit-profile)#committed-rate 1000000 host1(config-rate-limit-profile)#committed-action transmit final host1(config-rate-limit-profile)#exit host1(config)#parent-group EPG1 host1(config-parent-group)#rate-limit-profile AGG host1(config-parent-group)#exit
