<font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I was forced to use ill-behaving transmission
devices (EoSDH) that have netto speed STM-1 and GE ports, but have only
single 16kB packet buffer available at the bottleneck.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The traffic I must pass through it is
rather bursty* and comes from the GE port of 7750.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">It is sourced from dozen of SAP-s (several
different services with aggregated classes).</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">*(mainly Internet access)</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I can shape it together to the given
average max rate (i.e.150Mbps), using multiservice-site scheduler-policy
with parent port scheduler, but observe that </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">still some bursts of traffic leaves
from the SR port that 16kB buffer cannot accomodate (mtu used on every
service is no more than 1564B).</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The symptoms are both reported as buffer
overflows on EoSDH port (sdh side) and visible as lost packets in ordinary
ping.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Unfortunately the lost packets are observed
even at average utilization of 70-80 Mbps, far below the physical link
capacity.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Constant, non-bursty flows generated
form traffic tester show proper shaping and smooth operation of EoSDH box,</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> but after introducing some burstiness
on traffice source (that enters SR) I observe drops on the the EoSDH small
buffer.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Is there any parameter or guideline
how to tune the scheduler behaviour , to achieve better smoothness on egress
port traffic?</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">In contrast, I've connected the Cisco
3750 with ordinary egress port bandwith limit feature (still using four
different traffic classes within shaped speed),</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">and there are no drops on EoSDH box,
up to the link capacity on the same traffic type.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Regards</font>
