Configuring Flow Aware Qos - Cisco ASR 9000 Series Configuration Manual

Configuring Flow Aware QoS

Flow Aware QoS provides packet flow awareness and enhances per-flow action capabilities in the existing
QoS functionality. Flow aware QoS suite provides a framework that can support per-flow feature functionality
such as admission control and traffic flow based dynamic rate limiting.
This module provides the conceptual and configuration information for Flow Aware QoS.

Information About Flow Aware QoS
Flow Aware QoS
In Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers, the granular control of traffic flow is achieved by applying static match
criteria and associated QoS action on traffic flow. With real-time on-demand VoIP and video traffic applications,
and tailor-made user services, there is an increasing need for the QoS actions to be more flow, application
and session aware as opposed to being static, configuration based and stateless. Flow aware QoS feature
provides this functionality to QoS and creates a framework to define flow aware QoS solutions such as call
admission control or per-user traffic rate limiting.
