[c-nsp] ASR1000 and QOS

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to realize a qos configuration on an asr 1006 for pppoe services being sold by our national incumbent.
On a single GE interface I will receive two classes of services, cos 0 and cos 1,  each with a set bandwidth. i.e. cos 0 100mbps cos 1 20mbps.
Each dslam gets terminated using a vlan for each cos , so in the end I will have n vlans for the cos 0 traffic and x vlans for the cos 1 traffic.
Things gets complicated though as we want to assign a policy to the pppoe sessions as well, as we will have varying line rates on the customer lines.
Ideally I would like to be able to shape the n vlans to the cos 0 rate and the x vlans to the cos 1 rate,
and then be able to shape the single sessions as each will have a different line rate.

I have tried

1) with the SE following us (on vacation now since we need him)  we thought that service policy aggregation would be the way to go.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/qos/configuration/guide/qos_policies_agg.html
but when we assign the end user policy via radius it does not get applied and we have the error
policy TEST with fragment class can only be attached to ethernet subifc and port-channel subifc
Tinkered awhile with various configs but no go lets try something else..

2) setting up a policy on the GE that shapes on match vlans , and sending service policy for the users via radius.
error message
service-policy with queueing features on sessions is not allowed in conjunction with interface based
and the policy is not applied
bummer....
I am thinking about trying to declare the interface bandwidth via radius and then use bandwidth % instead of shape but that should be queueing as well and also the scaling documents for the asr have big warnings on the use of lcp:interface-config ...


So here I am looking for a way to do this....

The only other thing that comes to mind is placing a box before the asr to shape the vlans and just work on the sessions on the asr, but that means another box to purchase, maintain, etc etc.

If you've made it this far (sorry about the length)
Has anyone done something similar, or have any suggestions ?

Thanks in advance!

Brian
