Is there an elegant, scalable, manageable way to roll-out/implement network-wide/end to end qos over my ip/mpls network ?
I mean do I really need to go to each and every interface and apply policy-map (service-policy) to all the interfaces of all my mpls lsr's ?! Is it possible to enable something like rsvp and mpls te to allow for end to end qos ? What is the nicest way to do this ?

Also I believe mpls has different QoS operating modes. Rick On Friday, 16 August 2013, Aaron wrote: I work for an ISP/Telco/CATV company. We recently (within the last year or more) rolled out an MPLS network. The mpls network is comprised of asr9k's, asr901's, me3600's and uBR7246vxr's.... all those run in an ospf area in the core igp. ...then I add on top of all that , all the nice MPLS vpn's (l2vpn's, l3vpn's). How would you go about setting priority treatment to say for instance, all of your cell backhaul traffic and also all of your telco voice traffic? (the difference in the two is that cell backhaul is simply transported via mpls from my perspective... BUT the internal telco voice traffic is what we as a telephone company handle all the sip/mgcp signaling end to end, then all the traditional backend voice call routing , etc ,etc (I'm not the phone guy, but anyway)) 1 - cell backhaul - my cell backhaul traffic is all edged-in on asr901's.. and edge'd out on asr9k's at the MTSO/MSC hand-off locations.. It's mpls l2vpn vpws port-based is how I do it.. X2 .I other words, dual pw's per cell tower site. Two end to end xconnect's 2 - internal voip - my voice traffic is contained within a separate vrf (mpls l3vpn).edge'd into the network on me3600's and core is 9k's. Where would you start with an objective like that ? ....getting priority treatment to cell backhaul traffic and also internal voip ? >From a big picture, nework-wide qos deployment strategy, where would you start?
