• You can enable SVC traffic shaping and provide values for the LL Core traffic
shaping parameters.
If you supply values for the LL Core parameters, the router can only request
from the frame relay network an SVC with that configured quality of service.
The actual values for the burst capacity and throughput that the network
supplies may be less than requested because the local router, the network, and
the remote end negotiate the actual quality of service. To track the values an
SVC uses, use the Site Manager Statistics Manager (see Configuring and
Managing Routers with Site Manager) or use the BCC show commands for
SVCs (see Appendix C, “Monitoring Frame Relay Using the BCC show
Command”).
• You can disable SVC traffic shaping and provide values for the LL Core
committed burst, excess burst, and throughput.
If you configure traffic shaping this way, the router does not enforce the CIR it
requests from the frame relay network. There is a risk of oversubscribing the
interface, which may cause packets to be dropped.
Refining Quality of Service
You can refine quality of service requirements for SVCs. This means that you can
modify traffic shaping parameters for the incoming and outgoing data flow and
the minimum acceptable throughput. The values you set for these parameters
depend on where the SVC call originates.
If a local router originates the call, the LL core outgoing committed burst, excess
burst, and throughput values define characteristics of data the local router
transmits, while the LL core incoming values define characteristics of data the
local router receives.
If the local router receives a call, the outgoing values define characteristics of data
the local router receives, while incoming values define characteristics of data the
local router transmits.
Table 1-6
shows the direction of data and whether the incoming or outgoing
parameters apply.
