[c-nsp] MPLS VPN QoS on a SP core

[Shankar Vemulapalli (svemulap)]

Take a look at the following QoS SRND document which provides a very
good starting point. 
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/solution/esm/qossrnd.pdf
Look for "MPLS VPN QoS Design"  

Btw - one additional factor that you want to look in is if the customer
is dual-homed to two SPs.
In this case, we want to make sure we have consistent QoS  guarantees
across the MPLS VPN cloud. 

Hope it helps.

Yes.

Depends on what you want, but you can for instance mark MPLS EXP for the
traffic in a certain VPN and treat those packets differently in your
core.
