QoS on 7200 LNS for PPPoX

Folks,
I need a little clarification.
We have a set of 7200's that run as an LNS to various PPPoA and PPPoE clients dotted about the place.  These are authenticated via RADIUS and exit the router on various VRF's to find their destinations.  All works very well.
We are looking at implementing a QoS policy on the 7200 LNS being pushed out via the RADIUS server, which we've tested and know works fine.  The question that I have is about how the QoS policy will behave:
The QoS policy will be applied to the various Virtual-Access interfaces as the users connect and will be applied for downloading of traffic specifically.  What is the best way to build the policy?  The reason I ask is that I'm unsure as to how the traffic will act as it exits the router on the downstream gig ethernet link.  Is there a QoS policy that needs to be created on that physical link too?
Has anyone implemented this sort of configuration and if so, what are the lessons learned?  Did you go with "bandwidth" for the QoS and shape out 100 percent of the link on the Virtual-Access?  I'm looking to ensure throughput in times of congestion, but dont want to police the interfaces down all of the time.
Any thoughts or comments?

Hi Leigh
I was wondering if you can post your comments after you tried setting this up in the 7200.
I am running ver 12.4 and can't get much information around, however I found a couple of posts saying the feature is not supported.
any comments would be appreciated.

  • Does anyone know where I can buy a 750GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm for the new mac mini??

    There is a mac mini teardown for the new model at this site: http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Mac-Mini-Mid-2011-Teardown/6131/1. Here it says that the user can easily upgrade their own mac mini hard drive, but does any place sell a 750GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm for mac mini that you know of???
    Thanks in advance.

    My source for hard drives has, for years, been newegg.com. They have good selection, good prices, and speedy delivery. Also, a broad selection of user comments. You can find their 2.5" laptop 750GB serial ATA 7200RPM drives at http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007605%2060003059 9%20600003340&IsNodeId=1&name=7200%20RPM

  • Is QoS tools shape good for VoIP?

    Hi,
    I have MPLS VPN scenario. For MPLS VPN at PE router connecting to hub, I've configured below QoS:
    class-map match-any P1
    match ip dscp ef
    class-map match-any P3
    match ip dscp default
    class-map match-any P2
    match ip dscp af31
    policy-map QoS
    class P1
    priority percent 35
    class P2
    bandwidth percent 40
    random-detect
    class P3
    bandwidth percent 25
    random-detect
    Since on the egree PE towords the internet, I'm using subinterface thus, the configuration is:
    policy-map cust-qos
    class class-default
    shape average 256000
    service-policy output QoS
    interface FastEthernet1/0.8
    encapsulation dot1q 8
    ip address ...
    service-policy output cust-qos
    Since the internet access is 256K, I've configured shape average 256000.
    My problem is that, during high congestion at internet access, I noticed that on cust-hub my VoIP SIP is having problem to ring to another VoIP SIP within the same hub. Is it because of the shape command ?
    thanks in advanced

    Hi Maher,
    shape average 256000 is to much. The point is, that you have OSI layer2 overhead and layer2 keepalives and such. Lower it to f.e. 240000. You might need to "play" a little with the parameter, as the overhaed depends on average packet size.
    Also make sure, that your SIP traffic is marked with af31. Just as a note: Cisco changed from marking voip signaling with af31 to cs3. Take a sniffer and check that proper markings are in place for voip signaling. Or just try
    class-map match-any P2
    match ip dscp af31 cs3
    Hope this helps! Please rate all posts.

  • 5400 or 7200 HD for iMovie/Livetype Projects?

    I'm planning on purchasing the new macbook. I've read numerous topics on users who are upgrading their hard drives to a 7200 instead of the stock 5400 by way of 3rd party vendors. I use iMovie consistently for projects as well as Livetype. Would I notice a huge improvement using the 7200 or would there be a minimal difference?
    Thanks...Greg

    My personal recommendation is to get an EXTERNAL firewire drive. (7200RPM, of course)
    iMovie will probably bennefit from a higher RPM drive. Not sure exactly how MUCH of a different it will be.
    The differences in drive speed are more significant if you have low ram. Max out the ram first, then upgrade the drive to 7200RPM. I saw a huge improvement in overall system responsiveness when I upgraded my iBook G4 and my MacMini G4 to 7200RPM drives.

  • Zyxel NSA325 v2 and WD Red Pro 64MB 3TB (7200 rpm) for Premiere?

    I am considering buying:
    Zyxel NSA325 v2
    WD Red Pro 64MB 3TB (7200 rpm)
    (I have no knowledge regarding NAS).
    Can I use this setup for editing in Premiere Pro on my Laptop (which also shall have 7200 rpm)? I have found some limitations, and I wonder if they matter:
    ftp://ftp.zyxel.com/NSA325_v2/application_note/NSA325%20v2_1.00.pdf :
    7. Which types of video file formats are supported by the NSA325 v2?
    NSA325 v2 supports the following video formats: MPEG-1/MPEG-2, MPEG-4, AVI, DivX, Motion JPEG, Quick Time Video, RealMedia, Ogg, Matroska, ASF, Windows Media Video and ISO. Subtitles are also supported by the NSA325 v2.
    9. Which types of image file formats are supported by the NSA325 v2?
    NSA325 v2 supports bitmap, JPEG, and PNG.
    What does "supported" mean here? Can I for instance open and editing for example TIFF-files directly in Photoshop?

    i believe those limitations are for the DLNA media server function. you can youtube that to see more, but basically its a fancy file sharing/streaming protocol that allows tv's and even some game consoles like the ps3 to connect to it and stream the content to a tv over your local network.  those limitations wont come into play if you are accessing the hdd directly thru a share or usb cable. that Zyxel seems to be loaded with features... do you need NAS (network attached storage) or just looking for external hdd? it does have a usb3 connection which will be fast, but the gigabit ethernet connection might be too slow depending on the media you are editing. that hdd will be limited greatly if using the gigabit connection.  if you dont need network storage, an external usb 3 case will be alot cheaper.  also if you have an spare/old computer with gigabit ethernet, you can just stick the hdd into it and share out the hdd to access it over the network to accomplish the same thing.

  • QoS and DSCP settings for Video Streaming

    So I've got this beautiful topology at home that consists of three WAP 121 and a RV320 as the default gateway.
    How should I tweak their QoS and DSCP parameters to optimize Video Streaming applications like YouTube, Netflix and such?
    Thanks community!

    Open the set up page of the router by typing the IP address of 192.168.1.1 or open Cisco connection go to router settings
    Then go to advanced settings and  then click copy password and hit OK ..once you on the router page
    Go to wireless and click manual after that create network name (SSID) Then set the wireless security as WPA2 personal
    Which would give you stabilize connectivity then upgrade the latest firmware on  the router and reduced the MTU to 1462..
    Unplug the power from  the modem and  the router
    Wait for 1 minute and plug them back wait for 1 minute and then check the speed .

  • QOS guide or samples for EHWIC-4ESG-P

    I'm looking to configure QOS on a EHWIC-4ESG-P however there isn't much I can find for configuration guide on doing that.  Does anyone have a good document on that or an example config ?  I'm looking to match COS on the switchports, map COS to DSCP, and continue on from there.   Any help would be appreciated..
    thank you..

    Hi Andy,
    For routing protocols like ISIS, BGP, OSPF and LDP for MPLS you dont need to set the QoS class manually, this is done automatically. Nevertheless, in your outgoing service policy you still need to do the bandwidth allocation for that. You implement this by matching on EXP 6 and EXP 7 if you run MPLS on the interface or by matching on PREC 6 and PREC 7 on interfaces running plain IP. After matching the control traffic you allocate e.g. a minimum interface bandwidth of 1%, depending on how much control traffic you expect. Normally on Gig and 10Gig interfaces, 1% is sufficient IMHO.
    For BFD, see the following document:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/asr9000/software/asr9k_r4.3/routing/configuration/guide/b_routing_cg43xasr9k_chapter_011.html#ID567
    In this case you need to set and match the priority bits manually on the echo packets.

  • QOS config 4500 switchport for Lightweight access point

    What is the best QOS configuration what needs to be applied on a 4500 switchport for Lightweight access point.

    Hi,
    If you are asking about Layer 2 QoS configuration for switch-port then it is global command, which will apply on all switch-ports, not for any specific switch-port. 
    As far as switch-port mode is concern which in connected to LWAP then yes it is better you keep it in default mode.

  • 5400 or 7200 drive for MBP 17''

    Hallo,
    I'm going to order a MBP 17'', but I'm still curious, if I should take the 120 GB 5400 rpm or the 100 GB 7200 rpm drive.
    I guess 100 GB is plenty, so I won't miss the extra 20 GB, but are those 7200 drives louder ?
    Are they really faster, so that you can 'feel' the difference ?
    Which disk models are used in the 17'' MBP (Maybe some of those lucky guys with their new 17'' babys can check this..)
    Thanks !!
    regards
    Marc

    Please note how I said it will not increase performance for booting and normal operations.
    I said:
    If you work on audio or video where large blocks are captured or played back, the 7200rpm internal drive of the MacBook has a clear advantage over the stock 5400rpm internal drive. Doesn't make huge difference for normal booting/web/office work however.
    You said:
    That implies that it won't give you much advantage for booting and normal operations.
    Same thing.
    Also another article they did pitted the Momentus 7200K drive against others and they clearly conclude it's a good choice for an upgrade. The 7200.1 is the dxact drive I got from Apple as the upgrade, so it totally applies to this post.
    http://www.barefeats.com/hard56.html
    The conclusion was:
    ANALYSIS
    The Seagate Momentus 7200.1 takes notebook drive speed to a whole new level. It's not as fast as the fastest 2.5" [ed] 7200rpm drives but it's impressive nevertheless. And its quiet. It's a no brainer for a PowerBook internal drive replacement or as an external drive in a FireWire 800 enclosure.
    WILL A 7200RPM NOTEBOOK DRIVE DRAIN MY BATTERY FASTER?
    The short answer is, "Probably not."

  • 5400 rpm or 7200 rpm for new mac mini??

    Is there really that big of a difference between the two speeds? I will use this computer for some online games and app development for iphone. Do you think I will need the faster hard drive?  Is it possible to install a second hard drive into the mac mini after I purchase it??

    It absolutely will make a difference.  Of course, unless you're running the two speeds side-by-side, it's going to be hard to compare.  But, ultimately, yes...you will see better performance with a higher RPM disk.  you may be better off upping the amount of RAM in your system, and if you're planning on gaming a lot, get the mini with discrete graphics instead of the integrated.
    To your second question, take a look at ifixit.com.  They've already posted a teardown of the new mini, and there is room for a second 2.5" drive in there.  You just need to find the cable that connects the drive directly to the system board.

  • QOS over 7200 Gig link to 15454

    We're implementing WAN where a 7206 connects via GB to 15454 GB, which in-turn is mapped into 3 STS-1's. This actually provides us with 155MB throughput on the GB. Therefore, considering we have VOIP and other mission critical applications riding through the GB interface (155MB) we need to limit all applications to 155MB. I'm considering using CAR to rate limit VOIP and non-essential IP traffic. Are there other QOS mechanisms that would be a better fit?

    Hi,
    Yes, if you have a newer IOS try the "Modular Quality of Service Command-Line Interface".

  • Best/stable IOS for 7206 to support MPLS and L2TP/LNS

    Hi.
    I can see many versions of IOS that can support MPLS/L2TP/LNS for 7206.
    But which is the latest recommended?
    I am eyeing the following:
    12.4.24T7(ED)
    c7200p-advipservicesk9-mz.124-24.T7.bin
    or
    12.2.33 SRE6
    c7200p-advipservicesk9-mz.122-33.SRE6.bin
    Both released March2012.
    Or should I go up to 15.1?
    thanks

    Hi Allan,
    I would recommened moving to 15.1. Multiple bug fixes + lot of code changes are present between 124 - SRE and 15.1, particularly CEF, Multicast and QoS.

  • Configuring QoS for FIOS Router MI-424WR: Traffic Priority and Shaping

    Please only read on if you are an experienced internet user familiar with setting the advanced QoS and Firewall settings for the MI-424WR and make use of wireless adaptors from a PC to provide connectivity.
    This is my first post and my first week since I moved from Time Warner Cable over to FIOS for iNet (plus HDTV and phone).     While all my services work, the router as delivered and setup is not optimum for internet quality of service.  Instead it was probably out of the box optimized for HDTV and telephone to satisfy most customers and reduce support overhead.   The average FIOS consumer is multimedia sensitive, but that is not so in my genre of internet consumer.   Here in lies the core of my reason for seeking help from like minded and experienced users in this community.
    One of the main driving forces in my switching to FIOS was to improve my multiplayer gaming experience where ultra low ping latency and high upload data rates dramatically affect the quality of connection and thus gameplay.    The cable internet service from TimeWarner was providing solid 2MB/1MB down/up data rates with no issues like what Im having now with FIOS.   Again the reason for the switch was both financial and in hope of gaining better data rates and quality of service.   Now with FIOS Im getting about 24/15 down/up data rate on the Extreme FIOS 25/25 plan when measured from my house to Los Angeles server (50 miles away) via Speedtest.net or DslReports.com/tests.     Latency wise, the ping has gone down from 150 to 50ms when measured to my friends who I connect to online that are on the East coast.   The data rate and latency has greatly improved in going from Cable to FIOS.   So far, so good.
    Where the problem shows up now, is that now I get an internet "hiccup" every 5-10 minutes that lasts about 1/2 to 2 seconds.   For the average internet user that just streams multimedia or cruises on the net; this is probably undetectable or noticed.   I never had this problem over the same PCs connected wirelessly to my DLINK DGL-4500 Gaming Router when my ISP was TimeWarner's cable service.    Now, using the FIOS and MI-424WR router with everythings being the same; Im experiencing this degregation in quality of service.    Even putting the PC's IP into the DMZ doesnt make any difference, so it is not related to port forwarding.    The issue is squarely in the lap of FIOS and this router as delivered and configured.    This is where the "game" is a foot, and where I need expertise in an area Im new to. 
    I am not new to being hands on with inet trouble shooting asI have been setting up my own home network (I work from home over VPN to work) for decades;  I would like to leverage the skills of those who are experts in the area that I think can address this issue.   That being QoS and the other device class mechanisms of this router.   Its my guess that this periodic hiccup can be minimized and even eliminated using these advanced features of this all-in-one TV/iNet/Tele router.   
    With that context being laid down, this hiccup doesnt show up if:
    a.  I connect two PCs connected to the same ethernet hub of the MI-424WR (traffic just over the LAN and not WAN)
    b.  When I was on Cable with my own gaming router wirelessly DHCP connected to my PC and using port forwarding or using the DMZ.  
    The hiccup does exist when:
    a.  Going from internet through the MI-424WR to the wireless DHCP connected PC with port forwarding
    b.  Even putting the wireless DHCP connected PC into the MI-424WR's DMZ has no effect
    I did read the manual and tried some QoS pritority and shaping and managed to reduce how often the hiccup occured, but I was just making guesses at the settings.   I put in the IP for the PCs I use for my gaming applications (which are very ping and jitter sensitive) into the QoS priority (value 7) and shaping GUI.    Im hoping someone with experience can tell me exactly how to use it and what settings to input.   Im not clear on the device and connection types offered in the QoS menus. 
    Another thing, is I couldnt find settings for the turning on/off the ICMP echo.   But I assume this is on because it can be pinged by folks on the net to my WAN IP.
    Here is the manual for the Verizon provided M424WR router (Current Version of firmware: 20.10.7)
    download link
    Here are the QoS traffic priority and shaping values Ive been experimenting with:
    Click to view QoS Traffic Priority
    Click to view QoS Traffic Shaping
    And why it matters to have a solid and stable inet connection for internet gaming?  The hiccup causes slewing or jitter which equates to positional errors in the 3D world that ruins the smooth gameplay that is needed for high end gaming.
    Heres a snapshot of me flying the wing of another flight simmer who is on the East coast and me on the West coast.

    That's not accurate.  VZ telephone service does not go through the Actiontec.  Also, there are no default settings for QOS in the Actiontec since QOS is rarely needed with FIOS upload speeds.

       You should not be experiencing periodic "hiccups".  Something is clearly amiss.

    Lets see.  The issue shows up on a wireless connection, but not a wired connection.  You think this is a QOS issue and not a wireless issue why?  Have you tried changing the wireless channel?  It very possible you have neighbors on the same channel.  Is the DGL-4500 wireless still on?  Could that be interfering?TMAS wrote:

    The settting to enable/disable ICMP echo is on the Firewall/Remote Administration page.

    The traffic proirity settings you linked are applied only to your wireless connections.  QOS between the router and your wireless PC will only serve to prioritize traffic between the router and that PC and have no affect on your internet traffic.  Assuming you are not running browsers, VOIP and other traffic from that PC while you're gaming, then that will not accomplish anything.  i.e.  You're giving your only traffic highest priority, but that traffic is not competing with anything (except other nearby wireless connections on the same channel).
    On the traffic shaping screenshot, you have broadband ethernet checked, but according to your other thread, your WAN connection is Broadband Coax, not Broadband ethernet.

  • QoS for App-V

    Hello,
    I'm currently configuring new 3750X switches.
    I must implement QoS on the stack. The QoS must be the following:
    VOIP Class (50%)
    App-V Class (40%)
    Movie Class (10%)
    How I can do this (in particular for AppV)? I do the following for the moment:
    class-map match-any VOIP
    match protocol voice
    match dscp ef
    match protocol sip
    match protocol skype
    match protocol rtp audio
    match protocol rtp video
    exit
    class-map AppV
    exit
    class-map Movie
    match protocol rtp video
    exit
    policy-map BandwidthTraffic
    class VOIP
    priority percent 50
    set dscp ef
    class AppV
    bandwidth remaining percent 40
    class Movie
    bandwidth remaining percent 10
    interface Gig1/0/3
    ip nbar protocol-discovery
    service-policy input BandwidthTraffic
    Anyone can says me if it's correct or not? And why?
    Thank you for your help.

    It appears you've some router QoS.  3750X QoS is quite different for egress as you're limited to working with four egress queues.  I don't recall 3750X supporting NBAR.
    Suggest you read the configuration guide's chapter on QoS, for you 3750X IOS version, and then post questions as necessary.  (My concern is, 3750X QoS is so different, it wouldn't be helpful to suggest a QoS configuration until you had a basic understanding of the 3750 QoS architecture and features.)
