[c-nsp] QoS for different types of internet customers

[Andy Saykao]

Thanks Arie. I had a sneaking suspicion it might be like that. 

I wasn't sure what happened to the customer's entire traffic mix who
were in the GOLD class. Sure their real time traffic gets preferential
treatment but what happens to their mission-critical data traffic? Makes
sense what you're saying.

What could be done is to build a few profiles where you allow the
customer a pre defined mix of all 3 (or just 2) classes, each with a set
percentage of the total link BW.
You allow the customer to send the traffic pre-marked, and on your side
use a policer to make sure they do not overload a specific class - and
down-mark the excess traffic to a lower/BE class.

Sorry to diverse a bit from this discussion, but for customers on the
Gold plan such as the one mentioned by Will, do you just prioritize
their voip/video traffic so this traffic goes into the LLQ??? What
happens to their other traffic - how will it be handled by the QoS
policy?

Cheers.

This is how I view it as well...only provide QoS to the MPLS VPN since
all the traffic stays on your network.  I think what the Sales &
Marketing folk are seeing this as, "well our dedicated internet
customers pay more than the burst low speed customers so we should be
able to guarantee their traffic in times of congestion."  It's always
about the $$$.
