Configuring Mpls And Differentiated Services; Configuring The Tunneling Model For Differentiated Services - Juniper BGP - CONFIGURATION GUIDE V 11.1.X Configuration Manual

Configuring MPLS and Differentiated Services

TIP: Before you read this section, we recommend you be thoroughly familiar with
the concepts of the JUNOSe QoS application.
MPLS employs several strategies to manage different kinds of data streams based
on service plans and priority:
To configure MPLS for differentiated services:

Configuring the Tunneling Model for Differentiated Services

The JUNOSe software supports both the pipe model and the uniform model for
tunneling with the mpls tunnel-model command. The router also provides a way
to implement the functionality of the short pipe model for IP packets.
To specify whether MPLS uses the pipe or uniform model of tunneling for
differentiated services:
