Chapter 42 Configuring PFC QoS
Understanding How PFC QoS Works
Figure 42-3 shows traffic flow and PFC QoS features with a PFC2.
Figure 42-3 Traffic Flow and PFC QoS Features with PFC2
Figure 42-3 shows how traffic flows through the PFC QoS features with PFC2:
• Traffic can enter on any type of port and exit on any type of port.
• DFCs implement PFC QoS locally on switching modules.
• For FlexWAN module traffic:
–
Ingress FlexWAN QoS features can be applied to FlexWAN ingress traffic.
–
Ingress FlexWAN traffic can be Layer 3-switched by the PFC2 or routed in software by the
MSFC2.
–
Egress FlexWAN QoS can be applied to FlexWAN egress traffic.
• For LAN-port traffic:
–
Ingress LAN-port QoS features can be applied to LAN-port ingress traffic.
–
Ingress LAN-port traffic can be Layer-2 or Layer-3 switched by the PFC2 or routed in software
by the MSFC2.
–
Egress LAN-port QoS can be applied to LAN-port egress traffic.
• For OSM traffic:
–
OSM-port QoS features can be applied to OSM-port ingress traffic.
–
Ingress PFC2 QoS can be applied to OSM-port ingress traffic.
–
OSM-port ingress traffic can be Layer-3 switched by the PFC2 or routed in software by the
MSFC2.
–
Egress OSM-port QoS can be applied to OSM-port egress traffic.
