QoS Time-Based Thresholds for WRED and Queue Limit

The QoS Time-Based Thresholds for WRED and Queue Limit feature allows you to specify the Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) minimum and maximum thresholds or the queue limit threshold in milliseconds (ms). Previously, these thresholds could only be specified in packets or bytes. Now, all three units of measure are available. Once the threshold limits are configured in a policy map, the policy map can be used on multiple interfaces, including those with different amounts of bandwidth.

Prerequisites for QoS Time-Based Thresholds for WRED and Queue Limit

Before configuring this feature, a traffic class must be configured and a policy map must exist. To create the traffic class (specifying the appropriate match criteria) and the policy map, use the modular quality of service (QoS) command-line interface (MQC).

Restrictions for QoS Time-Based Thresholds for WRED and Queue Limit

This feature allows you to specify either the WRED thresholds or the queue limit threshold in packets (the default unit of measure), bytes, or milliseconds (ms). However, these units cannot be mixed. That is, the unit of measure in the same class, in the same policy map, cannot be mixed. For example, if you specify the minimum threshold for a particular class in milliseconds, the maximum threshold for that class must also be in milliseconds.

Benefits of QoS Time-Based Thresholds for WRED and Queue Limit

Queue Limit Thresholds Specified in Additional Units of Measure

Previously, the WRED thresholds and the queue limit thresholds could only be specified in packets or bytes. With this feature, the thresholds can be specified either in packets, bytes or milliseconds. These additional units of measure provide more flexibility and allow you to fine-tune your configuration.

Policy Maps Can be Reused as Needed on Multiple Interfaces

The WRED and queue limit thresholds are specified and configured in policy maps. Once the threshold limits are configured in a policy map, the policy map can be used on multiple interfaces, including those with different amounts of bandwidth. This is especially useful when the bandwidth for a class on given interface is being specified as a percentage of the total bandwidth available.

Setting Thresholds by Using WRED

WRED is a congestion avoidance mechanism. WRED combines the capabilities of the Random Early Detection (RED) algorithm with the IP precedence feature to provide for preferential traffic handling of higher priority packets. WRED can selectively discard lower priority traffic when the interface begins to get congested and provide differentiated performance characteristics for different classes of service.

WRED differs from other congestion avoidance techniques such as queueing strategies because it attempts to anticipate and avoid congestion rather than control congestion once it occurs.

WRED is enabled by using the random-detectcommand. Then the minimum threshold, maximum threshold, and mark probability denominator can be set to determine the treatment that packets receive by using the appropriate command. For example, the random-detect precedence command can be used to determine the thresholds for a specific IP precedence.

Setting Thresholds by Using the queue-limit Command

The queue-limitcommand allows you to specify or modify the maximum number of packets the queue can hold (that is, the threshold) for a class policy configured in a policy map. Packets belonging to a class are subject to the guaranteed bandwidth allocation and the queue limits that characterize the traffic class. With the queue-limit command, the threshold is the aggregate threshold for the entire class.

After a queue has reached its configured queue limit, enqueuing of additional packets to the traffic class causes tail drop or WRED (if configured) to take effect, depending on how the policy map is configured. (Tail drop is a means of avoiding congestion that treats all traffic equally and does not differentiate between classes of service.)

Queues fill during periods of congestion. When the output queue is full and tail drop is in effect, packets are dropped until the congestion is eliminated and the queue is no longer full).

Tail drop is used for distributed class-based weighted fair queueing (DCBWFQ) traffic classes unless you explicitly configure a service policy to use WRED to drop packets as a means of avoiding congestion. Note that if you use WRED instead of tail drop for one or more traffic classes making up a service policy, you must ensure that WRED is not configured for the interface to which you attach that service policy.

random-detect Commands with the Milliseconds Keyword

This feature allows you to specify the WRED minimum and maximum thresholds in milliseconds (ms). You can specify the threshold in milliseconds by using the ms keyword available with the random-detect commands listed in the table below.

Table 1 random-detect Commands with the Milliseconds (ms) Keyword

Command

Description

random-detect clp

Configures the WRED parameters for a particular cell loss priority (CLP) value, or a particular CLP value for a class policy in a policy map.

random-detect cos

Configures the WRED parameters for a particular class of service (CoS) value, or a particular CoS value for a class policy in a policy map.

random-detect discard-class

Configures the WRED parameters for a particular discard-class, or a particular discard-class for a class policy in a policy map.

random-detect dscp

Configures the WRED parameters for a particular differentiated services code point (DSCP) value, or a particular DSCP value for a class policy in a policy map.

random-detect precedence

Configures WRED parameters for a particular IP precedence, or a particular IP precedence for a class policy in a policy map.

Mixing Threshold Units of Measure

With this feature, the thresholds can be specified in packets (the default unit of measure), bytes, or milliseconds (ms). For instance, with WRED, you can specify the minimum threshold and the maximum threshold in packets, bytes, or milliseconds. However, the units cannot be mixed. For example, if you specify the minimum threshold in milliseconds, the maximum threshold must also be specified in milliseconds.

          Troubleshooting Tips
          

          
The commands in the 
"Verifying the Configuration"
 section allow you to verify that you achieved the intended configuration and that the feature is functioning correctly. If, after using the show commands listed above, you find that the configuration is not correct or the feature is not functioning as expected, perform these operations:
          

          
If the configuration is not the one you intended, complete the following steps:
          

          1. 
Use the show running-config command and analyze the output of the command. 
            

            2. 

          2. 
If the policy map does not appear in the output of the show running-config command, enable the logging console command. 
            

            3. 

          3. 
Attach the policy map to the interface again.
            

            4. 

          

          
If the packets are not being matched correctly (for example, the packet counters are not incrementing correctly), complete the following procedures:
          

          1. 
Run the show policy-mapcommand and analyze the output of the command.
            

            2. 

          2. 
Run the show running-config command and analyze the output of the command.
            

            3. 

          3. 
Use the show policy-map interface command and analyze the output of the command. Check the the following findings:
            1. 
If a policy map applies queueing, and the packets are matching the correct class, but you see unexpected results, compare the number of the packets in the queue with the number of the packets matched.
              2. 

            

            

            4. 

          

          
If the interface is congested, and only a small number of the packets are being matched, check the tuning of the transmission (tx) ring, and evaluate whether the queueing is happening on the tx ring. To do this, use the show controllers command, and look at the value of the tx count in the output of the command..

In the following example, WRED has been configured in the policy map called "policy1". In this WRED configuration, the bandwidth has been specified as a percentage (80%), and the minimum and maximum thresholds for IP precedence 2 are set to 512 milliseconds and 1020 milliseconds, respectively.

          Example  Using the queue-limit Command to Set Thresholds
          

          
      
          
In the following example, a policy map called "policy2" has been configured. The policy2 policy map contains a class called "class1." The bandwidth for this class has been specified as a percentage (80%) and the queue-limit command has been used to set the threshold to 200 milliseconds.
          

      
          Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)#
 
policy-map policy2
Router(config-pmap)# class class1
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 80

Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
 
Router(config-pmap)# exit
 
Router(config)# interface s4/0
Router(config-if)#

Router(config-if)# end

          

    
          

          

          

          Example  Verifying the Configuration
          

          
      
          
To verify that this feature is configured correctly, use either the show policy-mapcommand or the show policy-map interface command.
          

      
          
This section contains two sets of sample output from the show policy-map interface command and the show policy-map command--one set showing the output when WRED is used to configure the feature, one set showing the output when the queue-limitcommand is used to configure the feature.

          Formula for Converting the Threshold from Milliseconds to Bytes
          
      
      
          
When converting the threshold from milliseconds to bytes, the following formula is used: 
          

      
          
milliseconds * (bandwidth configured for the class) / 8 = total number of bytes
          

      
          
For this example, the following numbers would be used in the formula:
          

      
          
512 ms * 8000 kbps / 8  = 512000 bytes
          

      

          Note
          
Class1 has a bandwidth of 8000 kbps.

          Formula for Converting the Threshold from Milliseconds to Bytes
          
      
      
          
When converting the threshold from milliseconds to bytes, the following formula is used: 
          

      
          
milliseconds * (bandwidth configured for the class)/ 8 = total number of bytes
          

      
          
For this example, the following numbers would be used in the formula:
          

      
          
200 ms * 8000 kbps / 8  = 200000 bytes
          

      

          Note
          
Class1 has a bandwidth of 8000 kbps.
