Understanding Traffic Shaping via H-QoS
Traffic shaping is used to reduce traffic burstiness for an outgoing interface by delaying some or all frames. It is commonly applied at the network edges to control traffic entering the network. With shaping, you can control the volume of traffic being sent into a network during a specified period (bandwidth throttling) or the maximum rate at which the traffic is sent (rate limiting). Traffic shaping can be performed in both directions: from the UNI to the network and from the network to the UNI.
With the GT Performance Element, traffic shaping is achieved through Hierarchical Quality of Service. Quality of Service (QoS) is a way to optimize and/or guarantee traffic performance by differentiating between high- and lower-priority traffic and treating each differently. Traffic is differentiated by means of its assigned Class of Service, based on the value of the PCP field in its Ethernet frames. With QoS, the latency of high-priority traffic is improved through accelerated transmission to the network. Hierarchical QoS (H-QoS) is an extension of traditional QoS because it increases the usable bandwidth for lower classes of services by recycling the unused bandwidth (tokens) left over from higher classes of service. Multiple levels of Class of Service can be created:
- The first level is quality of service per Class of Service for a single customer service.
- The second level is quality of service for all Classes of Service for a single customer service.*
Because of the possibility to share bandwidth between classes of services, H-QoS is the preferred approach over traditional QoS. The GT Performance Element includes an MEF 10.3 H-QoS bandwidth sharing implementation.
In the figure below, three classes of service share the same total bandwidth. Bandwidth sharing enables bandwidth to be handed down from higher classes of service to lower classes of service.
In this example of MEF token sharing, a coupling flag (CF) is used to share unused bandwidth (shown as a dotted line) from either Excess Information Rate (EIR) traffic or Committed Information Rate (CIR) traffic with a lower Class of Service. The bandwidth profile algorithm that enables sharing unused bandwidth between flows inside an EVC is defined by the MEF 10.3 (the MEF uses the term envelope).
Setting Up H-QoS
Implementing H-QoS involves multiple configuration tasks, as listed below:
- Configure queues to handle the unit’s H-QoS traffic
- Create queuing profiles for each port or LAG on the unit
- Create envelopes (EVC), which define MEF 10.3 token sharing between flows
- Create a policy to refer to a queue profile that maps traffic on a queue
Note: Before you begin, you must ensure that you have pre-determined
how many queues you plan to implement, as well as the parameters of
each.
Understanding BLUE
The BLUE algorithm is used by the GT Performance Element's shapers for queue management. BLUE is an enhancement to the RED congestion avoidance algorithm; it offers the same benefits as RED and provides similar queue monitoring. The main difference between BLUE and RED is that BLUE also uses the queue packet loss and utilization history. Its use of a drop probability is more friendly with TCP global synchronization and reduces the number of TCP retransmissions.
Each shaper uses BLUE to manage queues based on link use. It maintains a marking probability (pm) that is used to either mark or drop the frames. If the queue is continually dropping the frames, pm is increased by the factor d* If the queue is empty or link is idle, pm is decreased by the factor d2.
Note: The value of d1 should be set significantly larger than that of d* This is because link is underused when congestion management is either too aggressive or too conservative, but frame loss occurs only when congestion management is too conservative.
BLUE uses also freeze_time, which determines the time interval between two successive updates of pm. It allows the changes in the marking probability to take effect before the value is updated again.
The BLUE algorithm is expressed as follows:
Upon Qlen > L1) event:
if ( ( now - last_update) > freeze_time )
pm := pm + d1
last_update := now
Upon Qlen < L2event:
if ( ( now - last_update) > freeze_time)
pm := pm - d2
last_update := now
To disable the BLUE algorithm
You might need to disable BLUE if your test equipment does not support it.

Configuring Queues for H-QoS
The GT Performance Element has six dedicated queues per port, as well as 12 user assignable queues. When in LAG mode, the queues dedicated to the LAG’s ports are unavailable because the LAG’s own queues are used instead.
Definitions: RPTQ stands for Ring Pass Through Queue. ADQ stands for Adequate Queuing Profile.
Note: You do not have to configure a queue for H-QoS if you do not plan to use the queue..
To configure queues for H-QoS
Access the page Traffic ▶ Shaping ▶ Queue ▶ Configuration.
The Traffic Shaping Queue Configuration page opens. All the unit’s queues are listed in a grid.Select a queue from the list to configure by clicking it.
The queue’s details are displayed.Use the information in the table below to configure the queue for H-QoS, then click Apply.
For more information on specific parameters, refer to the following table.
Queue Settings (Traffic ▶ Shaping ▶ Queue ▶ Configuration)
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Outgoing Port | Traffic from this queue will egress on the port specified here. |
Type | The type of queue is displayed here Available options are: - User-assignable -Dedicated |
Name | The name assigned to this shaper |
Queue Scheduling | |
Priority (0 to 7) | Make a selection from the drop-down list to assign a strict scheduling priority to this queue: 7 is the highest and 0 the lowest priority. Note: When several queues have the same priority, scheduling is carried out in a round-robin fashion. |
Color | Make a selection from the drop-down list to assign a queue scheduling color to this queue. Queues without an enabled shaper can have a CIR or EIR priority. When the queue scheduling color is set to green, the queue priority is configured for CIR scheduling; when the queue scheduling color is set to yellow, the queue priority is configured for EIR scheduling. |
Bandwidth Profile Parameters | |
Shaping State | Make a selection from the drop-down list to enable or disable the shaper. The rate information you provide in this page is applied to control traffic flow. Note: The BLUE and queue scheduling features remain functional when the shaper is disabled. |
Shaping Mode | The shaping mode determines whether the queue's bandwidth profile action is performed on the frames as they enter the unit (ingress) or after an EVC mapping action is applied by a traffic policy (egress). For example, if a traffic policy is configured to push a VLAN tag, setting the shaping mode to Ingress will apply the bandwidth profile before the VLAN tag is pushed. Setting the shaping mode to Egress will apply the bandwidth profile to the traffic after the VLAN tag is pushed. Make a selection from the drop-down list to indicate either ingress or egress shaping. |
CIR Committed Information Rate | The average shaping rate of green frames, expressed as a multiple of 125 kbps This is the shaper's average output rate. |
Maximum CIR | The maximum CIR, expressed in kbps, that the shaper can achieve by using the shared tokens from its envelope. |
CBS Committed Burst Size | The shaping burst of green frames, expressed as a multiple of 1 KiB (1024 bytes). Acceptable values range from 1 to 2047 KiB. |
EIR Excess Information Rate | The average shaping rate of yellow frames, expressed as a multiple of 125 kbps This is the shaper's average output rate. |
Maximum EIR | The maximum EIR, expressed in kbps, that the shaper can achieve by using the shared tokens from its envelope. |
EBS Excess Burst Size | The shaping burst of yellow frames, expressed as a multiple of 1 KiB (1024 bytes) Acceptable values range from 1 to 2047 KiB. |

Maximum Queue Size | The buffer's size, expressed in KiB (1024 bytes) Acceptable values range from 16 KiB to 1920 KiB. The Maximum Queue Size must be greater than the Yellow Threshold value. |
Yellow Threshold | When the queue length reaches this threshold, tail-dropping is performed on new packets with yellow marking. Acceptable values range from 16 KiB to the Maximum Queue Size value indicated above. |
BLUE State | Select to enable the BLUE queue management algorithm. The buffer is used to queue frames for later transmission. If the BLUE state is enabled, congestion management is ruled primarily by the BLUE queue management algorithm. Otherwise, it is managed through simple tail-drops. |
BLUE Queue Full Threshold | Once the queue fills to the specified percentage, the marking probability will be increased. The current range is from 5 to * The Blue Queue Full Threshold must be equal or greater than the Blue Queue Empty Threshold. |
BLUE Queue Empty Threshold | Once the queue empties to the specified percentage, the marking probability will be decreased. The current range is from 5 to * The Blue Queue Empty Threshold must be less than the Blue Queue Full Threshold. |
BLUE Marking Probability Freeze Time | This value determines the minimum interval time, expressed in microseconds (in increments of 10, between two successive updates of marking probability. Maximum of 655350 µs |
BLUE Marking Probability Increment | The marking probability is incremented by this value (expressed as a step percentage) in the event of a buffer overflow. Note: If this parameter is set to 0, the BLUE algorithm is disabled.
