• You can set the SVC Traffic Shaping Disable attribute or parameter to Enable,
and provide values for the LL Core traffic shaping attribute or parameters.
If you supply values for the LL Core attribute or parameters, the router
requests an SVC from the frame relay network with the quality of service you
have designed. However, the router can only request the values you have
configured. The actual values 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 (for more information, see Configuring and Managing
Routers with Site Manager).
• You can set the SVC Traffic Shaping Disable attribute or parameter to
Disable, and provide values for the LL Core Committed Burst, Excess Burst
and Throughput attribute or parameters.
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 result in dropped packets.
Refining Quality of Service for SVCs
SVCs allow you to refine quality of service requirements in that you can specify
values for traffic shaping attribute or parameters for both incoming and outgoing
directions, and you can set values for incoming and outgoing minimum acceptable
throughput.
The values you set in incoming and outgoing attribute or parameters apply to
traffic depending on where the SVC call originates. See “Defining
Incoming and
Outgoing” on page 2-29 to understand how the software uses these attribute or
parameters.
Refining Traffic Shaping
The attribute or parameters involved are the LL Core Out Throughput (CIR), LL
Core Out Committed Burst, LL Core Out Excess Burst, LL Core In Throughput
(CIR), LL Core In Committed Burst, and LL Core In Excess Burst. You can use
these attribute or parameters to request values for traffic shaping that distinguish
between incoming and outgoing traffic.
