MPLS enabled core network allows operators to treat the traffic the way they want regardless of what QOS markings the traffic is arriving with at the AS borders. You just take whatever comes in on your internet ports and dump it in your MPLS core BE class, you don't need to care what the DSCP markings are on various packets within your BE pipe, noise in noise out, let the chips fall where they may. So I'd encourage everyone, if you can, be part of the solution not part of the problem (especially with regards to the BCP-38 and uRPF mentioned) This is achievable because MPLS (as a form of tunnelling) allows you to maintain various independent queuing models. So by definition from the MPLS core perspective I couldn't care less about what's going on at the edge, but of course the business logic (not the QOS markings I mind you) forces me to pay attention to QOS markings on packets that enter through some types of links. That's why usually MPLS core only cares about whether it was voice, business-in-contract, business-out-of-contract or internet traffic in order to perform scheduling on core links. Now, I'm aware that there are cases were you have to bleach certain DSCP markings at ingress -this is in cases where the internet traffic is carried in native IPv4/6 core as you mentioned. That's where in fact, at ingress to your core, you should bleach DSCP marking you're using internally (but that's a necessary evil). adam netconsultings.com ::carrier-class solutions for the telecommunications industry:: _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
