CoS Traffic Shaping Predefined Variables for Dynamic Interface Sets

To control bandwidth at a household level in a subscriber access network, you can apply RADIUS CoS traffic-shaping attributes to a dynamic interface set and its member subscriber sessions when the member sessions are authenticated. The dynamic interface set, which represents the household level in a subscriber access network, can be either a dynamic agent-circuit-identifier (ACI) interface set or a non-ACI–based dynamic interface set. The subscriber sessions belonging to the interface set can be dynamic VLAN, DHCP, or PPPoE subscriber interfaces.

To apply RADIUS CoS traffic-shaping attributes to both the dynamic interface set and its member subscriber sessions, you must configure two traffic-control profiles in the dynamic profile for the subscriber interface: one traffic-control profile for the “parent” dynamic interface set, and a second traffic-control profile for the dynamic subscriber interfaces. RADIUS tag values for the Junos OS CoS traffic-shaping predefined variables used in these traffic-control-profiles must be in the 100s range, as described in Table 1.

To accommodate this feature, the set of existing $junos-cos-parameter predefined dynamic variables for traffic shaping have been duplicated and assigned a tag value in the 100s range, as listed in Table 1. The tag value is the only difference between the existing predefined dynamic variables and the predefined dynamic variables that you must use with this feature.

For example, the existing $junos-cos-shaping-rate predefined variable is assigned RADIUS vendor ID 4874, attribute number 108, and tag value 2. To apply RADIUS CoS traffic-shaping attributes to the dynamic interface set and its member subscriber sessions, you must instead use the $junos-cos-shaping-rate predefined variable that is assigned RADIUS vendor ID 4874, attribute number 108, and tag value 102.

Table 1 describes the Junos OS predefined dynamic variables and RADIUS tag values that you can use in a dynamic profile to apply RADIUS CoS traffic-shaping attributes to the dynamic interface set and its member subscriber sessions. The table lists the predefined dynamic variables in ascending order by tag value.

Note:

All of the predefined variables listed in Table 1 use RADIUS vendor ID 4874 and RADIUS attribute value 108.

Description

$junos-cos-scheduler-map

101

Scheduler-map name configured in a traffic-control profile in a dynamic profile.

$junos-cos-shaping-rate

102

Shaping rate configured in a traffic-control profile in a dynamic profile. Represents the maximum bandwidth of a CoS scheduler node.

104

Delay-buffer rate configured in a traffic-control profile in a dynamic profile.

$junos-cos-excess-rate

105

Excess rate configured in a traffic-control profile in a dynamic profile; scheduler weighting when operating in the excess region between the guranteed rate and the shaping rate.

Note:

Do not configure the $junos-cos-excess-rate variable when either the $junos-cos-excess-rate-high variable or the $junos-cos-excess-rate-low variable is configured.

$junos-cos-traffic-control-profile

106

Traffic-control profile configured in a dynamic profile for subscriber access.

$junos-cos-shaping-mode

107

Overhead-accounting mode configured in a traffic-control profile in a dynamic profile to shape downstream ATM traffic based on either frames (frame-mode) or cells (cell-mode).

$junos-cos-byte-adjust

108

Byte adjustment value for the cell or frame shaping mode configured in a traffic-control profile in a dynamic profile.

Note:
