PHB profile
A PHB Profile is the externally observable forwarding behavior applied at a DS-compliant
(Diff-Serv) node belonging to a DS domain. A set of "data treatments" (defined as PSCs)
are requested to be applied to packets on each NE inside DiffServ domain, where this
treatment includes both:
Selection of the queue and schedule discipline to apply at NE egress interface
•
Congestion thresholds to be applied over NE egress queues
•
The user can profile the NE forwarding behavior for TU Segment and PW Segment,
combining PHB. The user can use the following PSCs:
EF MPLS Expedited Forwarding - Used to give preferential queuing treatment in a
•
Strict Priority queue. Useful to provide low loss, low jitter and low delay handling
within an MPLS node.
HIGH2 - Used for delay/jitter sensitive traffic and sharping both the same relationship
•
with MPLS PSC bandwidth-based parameter and the same queuing type as in MPLS
EF PSC.
AF Assured Forwarding - This defines 4 independent forwarding classes (denoted as
•
AF1, AF2, AF3, and AF4). These PSCs are used when, in case of congestion, is
necessary to define the drop precedence of a packet according to An class. Both Green
and Yellow packets belonging to the same AF class are not requested to be re-ordered
from the system and are requested to be sent to the same egress WFQ forwarding
queue. This PSC is composed by 8 PHB [AF11, AF12, AF21, AF22, AF31, AF32,
AF41, AF42].
DE Default Behavior - Identifies the existing "best effort" traffic
•
LOW2 - The same queuing type and the same relationship with MPLS PSC
•
bandwidth-based parameters as in MPLS DE PSC
