Shaping and Queuing Per-Session Traffic on LNS
The Per Session Shaping and Queuing on LNS feature provides the ability to shape (for example, transmit
or drop) or queue (for transmission later) the traffic from an Internet service provider (ISP) to an ISP
subscriber over a Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) Network Server (LNS). The outgoing traffic is shaped
or queued on a per-session basis.
Shaping and queueing traffic on a per-session basis:
•
Helps to avoid traffic congestion and allows the ISP to adhere to the Service Level Agreement (SLA)
established for managing traffic.
•
Provides a high degree of granularity for managing traffic on the network.
Figure 18-1
is a sample
topology for per-session shaping and queuing on an LNS.
Figure 18-1
Per-Session Shaping and Queuing Topology—PPP Sessions Forwarded
In this simplified topology example:
1.
Downstream traffic is forwarded from the ISP (the source) to an ISP subscriber (the destination)
during a PPP session.
2.
From an LNS at the ISP, the traffic is transmitted over an L2TP tunnel to an L2TP Access
Concentrator (LAC) and then to the subscriber.
3.
Shaping and queuing the per-session traffic on an LNS can take into account the overhead between
the LNS, LAC, or E-DSLAM-to-CPE by using the user-defined overhead in the
shape
or
bandwidth
command.
4.
To specify the overhead offset in child and parent policies, use the
bandwidth
and
shape
commands. The offset values and encapsulation types must match in the child and parent policies.
