hi all,

Following our presentation at the Pittsburgh IETF meeting of
draft-tequila-diffserv-sls-00.txt, we would like to announce that the
sls interest mailing list is operational as of now.

To subscribe to the list send an email to majordomo@ist-tequila.org with
the sentence 
subscribe sls@ist-tequila.org 
in the body and nothing in the subject line.

This list provides the medium for discussion on Service Level
Specification (SLS) template definition and Service Level Specification
negotiation protocol requirements. In the coming weeks, an update to the
former draft and a framework document will be distributed.

Amongst the objectives of launching this list is to gauge interest for
the creation of work effort within the IETF on these specific topics.
Therefor, also a BoF description and agenda will be discussed on this
mailing list to be proposed to the appropriate area directors. 

http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-tequila-diffserv-sls-00.txt

archives can be found at
http://www.ist-tequila.org/sls.html
but there's little there today off course ;-)

regards,
Yves T'Joens

HI all,


Currently, I am helping Kwok out with the DIFFSERV-MIB.
Therefore, I have a question regarding the datapath
and its elements.

What is the minimum requirement for a datapath??
Would it be possible to have no elements at all
in the datapath??

Would this not be the case that for a specific
interface and interface direction the traffic
is totally not marked, drop, classified, etc..
Is there a particular naming for this??

Hi,

You need at least a BA classifier and a class scheduler.

Harrie:
Thanks for initiating this on the list.
For DiffServ's purpose, since Best Effort have a code point and considered
as a PHB, if one uses the DiffServ MIB, then each diffServDataPathTable
entry can point to a diffServClassifierTable entry, this
diffServClassifierTable
entry have to be a complete classifier, meaning it must provide a next path
for all possible packets, even if it means just giving it to normal packet
forwarding
path.
For a none-DiffServ purpose, as in SNMPCONF purpose, one may want to have
a zeroDotZero meaning for the diffServDataPathStart attribute, as there may be
zero number of traffic treatment elements within a data path.
Currently, I am trying to get more concensus with multiple Working Groups to
agree on using the DiffServ MIB as the building blocks for other higher
level MIBs
and PIBs, and making the necessary changes prior to publishing DiffServ
MIB-05.
More detail discussions will be forth coming with the release of MIB-05.

Thus, the minimal datapath is a BA consisting of a classifier
forwarding all traffic??

IMHO, I think the minimal is an interface that does not support DiffServ
and will not
have a datapath entry relating to this interface.  Other part of the same
device may
contain DIffServ interfaces.  For example, instrumenting an edge device with
large fan-in feeding into a DiffServ core, one may want to think of the
DiffServ edge
starts at the egress port going into the core.  This simplifies the
configuration of
such a device if the use of DiffServ is to protect the core network, with
this edge
device providing best effort services to a free ISP with ads on its portal
page.
Just a quick example.

Hi,

I am new in this working group and I would like to understand the Diffserv PIB. 

I read in the document (draft-ietf-diffserv-pib-01.txt)that the "Interface Type Capability Tables" may be associated with an interface of a specific type. Ok, but I don't see in any of the three tables a 'link' to assign capabilities to an interface type. What is the mechanism ?

Thanks for your response.

It seems to me the obvious minimal case is a diffserv supprting device 
which may be doing diffserv classification and operation in one direction, 
and not in the other.  So for example, the outbound direction on a customer 
facing interface may have no diffserv processing to do.  The table pointer 
for that interface and direction would be 0.0.  Thus, there is not even a 
classifier in this data path.
Yours,
Joel M. Halpern

Please check out the framework PIB (draft-ietf-rap-frameworkpib-02.txt). It
contains some of the general purpose tables that can be used by other PIBs.
I believe it will answer your question about how to link them.

I was wondering if you had some information on why I cannot connect to this

Thank you

The design team to resolve the pending disagreements about EF has been
conversing for a bit more than a month.  We have only two months until
the next IETF meeting, before which we intend to have completed our
task.  This message is to let you know about some of the avenues we
are exploring.

Firstly, please feel free to get in touch with either myself
(joel@longsys.com) or the team (efresolve@longsys.com) if you feel
that we are heading off in the wrong direction, or are full of hot
air, or whatever.  We would rather know about issues ASAP.

Secondly, it would be helpful if the sets of authors would identify
someone with whom we can talk about what your intentions /
understandings are so that we make sure not to completely misrepresent
your work.  Please send contact information to me.

Thirdly, none of the documents I am refering to here are internet
drafts.  They are just notes that we have exchanged.  When we get far
enough to have an Internet Draft available, I will let you know
immediately.

We have been wrestling with several dimensions.
We have put together a note that summarizes for ourselves our
understanding of the proposals and problems on the table.
We have raised some interesting questions (see next paragraph).
We are trying to craft solutions (see following paragraph).

The questions tend to revolve around two issues.  One set of issues we
have been discussing revolve around what terms it is easiest for us to
understand / talk about / define EF.  This relates to efforts to
understand the goal of the behavior, but is not equivalent to it.  We
have gotten into discussions of rate, delay, delay variation, and the
precision with which these can be mandated, etc.  (Issues that I am
certain the teams of authors have wrestled harder and have more
experience than we do, but we are trying our best.)
One of the interesting questions that has been raised in the team is
how to deal with traffic dependency.  The proposals on the table all
seem to have either implicit or explicit dependencies on some non-EF
traffic model (the EF traffic models are pretty explicit and do not
represent an issue here.)  However, the IETF does not have an agreed
traffic model for us to use.  There is even some experimental evidence
indicating that traffic behavior can have a noticeable effect on the
deliver of EF-like services, even when one is very careful.  So we are
wrestling with either trying to remove such dependency, or trying to
be more explicit about it.

In terms of crafting solutions, we are persuing several paths at
once.  Some of these will not make people happy.  If we can not find a
more acceptable solution, we may have to recommend (the final answer
will be up to the working group) that we move all of this work to
experimental.  We are trying to do better than that.  Another proposal
on the table is to craft a definition in which the normative (MUST)
definition is fairly loose and possibly even not particularly
mathematical.  And then add informative mathematics describing systems
that one might build to comply with this.  Our concern with this
approach is that it may not be particularly helpful in then building
PDBs out of the PHB.  We are also examining alternative
charactizations to see if we can find one that seems to work for the
goals that were laid out.

In conjunction with this, we would appreciate hearing from any
providers who would like to define a PDB built from an EF PHB as to what
characteristics you think would help you make use of the definition of
the PHB.

Yours,
Joel M. Halpern, chair EF problem resolution design team

I'm unclear on why you want to deal with traffic dependency. The original
definition of EF in RFC 2598 and the redefinition in
draft-charny-ef-definition-00.txt
give worst-case, gotta-do-it behavior regardless of the presence of other
traffic. True, if only EF traffic is present it may be forwarded faster than
required, but no matter what is going on, it may not be forwarded slower
than
required. That is, an EF definition should state what is acceptable
worst-case
per-hop behavior.

It seems to me that issues of rate, delay, and delay-variation are
important as they apply to microflows (which are beneath the scrutiny of any
DiffServ PHB, including EF) across a domain or from end to end (which is
beyond
the scope of any DiffServ PHB, including EF). I'm not suggesting that
traffic
dependency issues are out-of-bounds for the panel (even if I were at liberty
to make such a suggestion). I'm suggesting that EF is meant to be a service
for high-priority stuff, and that the only effect other traffic is going to
have
on it is to keep it running at something between the line rate and the
minimal
permissible rate (and probably fluctuating between the two in unpredictable
ways).
I doubt that any more sophisticated analyses of traffic will further you in
your charter. Where do you expect that your wrestling will take you?

Regarding mathematics: I think it would be a mistake to pre-determine
the level of mathematical content that should be embodied in the PHB
definition. I also think that last summer's discussion of the proper role
of mathematics in the definition was a misguided waste of time. In
the energetic discussion of RFC 2598 and the draft-charny redefinition,
most everyone seemed to have subscribed to an unspoken belief that
the redefinition was *mathematical.* In fact, it was NOT particularly
mathematical. True, it involves addition, division, a maximum and a
minimum, but c'mon, what doesn't? Not counting memory reads and writes,
you could code the thing in about 10 Ops. How mathematical could
it be? The redefinition was implementable and it was exact, but
mathematical?

I think that the surrounding text in the draft convinced readers
that anything that had so much analysis around it must, itself, be
mathematical. That text was written to demonstrate a couple of things:

   1) The redefinition can be implemented on servers employing any of
      a large variety of service disciplines
   2) Familiar end-to-end analysis techniques can be applied to the
      redefinition

Again, making suggestions where they may not be welcome, I would
suggest that the panel focus on the issues of whether the ultimate
EF definition is

    1) Appropriate (I.e., does it behave the way we would want a
       "Come hell or high water, I'm gonna forward this stuff" PHB
       to act) and
    2) Implementable (I.e., can the PHB actually be realized exactly
       without handwaving, nudges & winks, or "you know what I mean"s
       attached to it? Is the definition simple enough that reasonable
       implementers will understand what is meant by it? Is the
       processing and memory burden demanded by the definition tolerable
       to implementers?)

Whatever is necessary to come up with a clear and crisp expression of
such a definition should be used. If some math slips in, well, ..., no
one is perfect. :-)

Best of luck to the panel. I hope that you are able to cut through the
emotional fog that arose mid-summer.

Hi,

recently, I read the "draft-ietf-diffserv-pib-01.txt", and I have a
question about it.

In the "qosIfQueueTable" PRC, the attribute "qosIfQueueServiceDisc"
states that this attribute must have the same value for all queues
within the same priority group. Improper values could thus lead to
errors.

Couldn't you solve this problem by removing this attribute from this
PRC, and by introducing a new PRC with 3 attributes:
- qosIfQueueSetId
- qosIfQueuePriorityGroup
- qosIfQueueServiceDisc

So in this new class, each <queue set, priority group> pair (which
uniquely defines a subset of queues within the set) would then be
assigned a specified service discipline.

Is this correct?

Thanks in advance,

Mostly I was thinking of mis-configuration (human error) of policer
parameters (such as setting the rate to 100 Mb/s instead of 10Mb/s), but you
could include other failures too.

i.e where you end up with links that are

I don't think any PDB deployement can address this issue.

One advantage of ATM/FR/Intserv is that you have per-flow queuing, and even
if a policer fails, it would not have any adverse effect on other flows.
since Diffserv relies on the aggregate scheduling in the core, we won't have
this advantage. But we could probably use per-flow queuing at the edge
routers to stop excess traffic from flowing in to the core. My question is:

Is per-flow queuing at the edge routers compliant with Diffserv, and if so
does it cause any scaling problem? 

I personally think it is acceptable and won't cause any scaling problem,
because after all, Diffserv keeps other per-flow states at the edge routers,
it might as well keep per-flow queuing state too.
 
Network management tools that detect such problems
> quickly, accurately and scalably would appear to be the best bet.

Could you please describe how network management tools can detect the failed
policer?

Hi Shahram,

Could you be a bit more specific?

Are you referring to failures due to bad/wrong implementation?
Or is it simply "failure" due to bad configuration and associated
traffic 
management? i.e where you end up with links that are 
under-provisioned or over-subscribed due to excess traffic
allowed in at the network edge.

There's not much that one can do about the former ;)
I would think that the latter should be addressed by proper 
deployment of various defined PDBs or services.

It seems to me that in the context of Diffserv, if the edge doesn't do 
its job, there's not too much that the core can do other than the
obvious. Network management tools that detect such problems
quickly, accurately and scalably would appear to be the best bet.

Best,
Nabil Seddigh

I am a new comer to this list and appolagize if this question has been
discussed before:

If I am designing a proprietary AF PHB, do I have to define more than 1 AF
class?

The current AF RFC specify 4 classes and I really don't see many benefits of
defining that many classes.
Maybe 1 or 2 classes are quite enough? Any insight to this will be greatly
appreciated.

Shahram,

I doubt per-flow queueing at the edge will solve the problem that 
you describe. If I understand correctly, the per-flow queue 
parameters will be setup based on the  traffic profile for the 
traffic stream -which is wrongly configured to begin with.

I was just speaking generally with some loose ideas floating in
my head ;) The various approaches I have heard tossed around
involve topology knowledge, traffic pattern monitoring and
knowledge of the TCAs for the DS domain. 

In any case, this is probably not the right forum for such discussion.

Best,

Although the RFC (you referred to 2597?) recommends
four AF classes it does not mean that every vendor
must have four distinct behavior aggregates.  You need 
to make sure that you can handle up to four AF classes,
as far as the DSCP is concerned, but there is nothing in
Diffserv specs that prevents you from mapping more than 
one AF classes from upstream into one in your domain.

I am also new to this group, and would appreciate clarifications on this
subject.
 
Here is a paragraph from RFC 2597:
"A DS node SHOULD implement all four general use AF classes.  Packets
in one AF class MUST be forwarded independently from packets in
another AF class, i.e., a DS node MUST NOT aggregate two or more AF
classes together."
 
Does the above expressly prohibit implementations that support fewer than
four distinct PHBs and map more than one AF class to these PHBs?  Or, is it
okay to support, say, one PHB and map the four classes to these?  What does
'forwarded independently' mean in implementation?  Does it allow any level
of resource sharing among classes at all?
 
To be compliant with the RFC when supporting only two AF PHBs (say), is it
also necessary to limit the acceptable DSCPs to two sets (out of four)?

Although the RFC (you referred to 2597?) recommends 
four AF classes it does not mean that every vendor 
must have four distinct behavior aggregates.  You need 
to make sure that you can handle up to four AF classes, 
as far as the DSCP is concerned, but there is nothing in 
Diffserv specs that prevents you from mapping more than 
one AF classes from upstream into one in your domain.

Yes, this is expressly prohibited at interior nodes.  It is ok for an edge
node to remark
traffic so that fewer than 4 distinct AF classes are used inside the domain.
Note that
"AF class" as used here refers to PHBs, not DSCPs.

> Or, is it okay to support, say, one PHB and map the four classes to these?

Not in an interior node.  An edge node could remark traffic (e.g., so that
inbound
traffic in four classes exits in one class), but then there would only be
one AF
class used in the interior of the domain.

> What does 'forwarded independently' mean in implementation? 
> Does it allow any level of resource sharing among classes at all?

The RFC says:

   A DS node MUST allocate a configurable, minimum amount of forwarding
   resources (buffer space and bandwidth) to each implemented AF class.
   Each class SHOULD be serviced in a manner to achieve the configured
   service rate (bandwidth) over both small and large time scales.

It's ok for one class to consume resources available to, but unused
by another class for example.  It is not ok to put two classes in the
same queue where they completely share forwarding resources.

> To be compliant with the RFC when supporting only two AF PHBs (say), is
> it also necessary to limit the acceptable DSCPs to two sets (out of four)?

It's not strictly "necessary" -- RFC 2474 makes this a (lower-case) "should"
for the default
configuration:

   With some exceptions noted below, the mapping of codepoints to PHBs
   MUST be configurable.  A DS-compliant node MUST support the logical
   equivalent of a configurable mapping table from codepoints to PHBs.
   PHB specifications MUST include a recommended default codepoint,
   which MUST be unique for codepoints in the standard space (see Sec.
   6).  Implementations should support the recommended codepoint-to-PHB
   mappings in their default configuration.  Operators may choose to use
   different codepoints for a PHB, either in addition to or in place of
   the recommended default.  Note that if operators do so choose, re-
   marking of DS fields may be necessary at administrative boundaries
   even if the same PHBs are implemented on both sides of the boundary.

So, mapping of the recommended codepoints for one AF class onto another
AF class is allowed, but should not be done by default, as that would
diverge
from the guidance in RFC 2474.

Yes, your suggestion would remove the potential for
mis-configuration and it is a cleaner specification.

All,

I have a comment on the DiffServ PIB:
Specifically, on pg. 10, the qosIfClassificationCaps attribute definition:
1.	Recommend changing the attribute to qosIfClassificationCapsDefn or
qosIfClassificationCapsSpec
2.	The definition is not in line with the frwkBaseFilterTable and its
extends in the Framework PIB I-D; i.e. one of the extends is the
frwk802FilterTable which allows for the provisioning of 802-based filter
configuration data.  I recommend that more bits be added to the SYNTAX
definition of the qosIfClassificationCaps attribute.  This will allow for
PDP discrimination in regards to including the 802-based attributes in the
provisioning message instead of receiving an error from the PEP due to it
being unable to support 802-based filtering.  It will minimize bandwidth,
connection losses due to inability to process/corruption due to processing
problems, and configuration time.

This document considers the interaction of Differentiated Services
(diffserv) (RFC 2474, RFC 2475) with IP tunnels of various forms.  The
discussion of tunnels in the diffserv architecture (RFC 2475) provides
insufficient guidance to tunnel designers and implementers.  This
document describes two conceptual models for the interaction of
diffserv with Internet Protocol (IP) tunnels and employs them to
explore the resulting configurations and combinations of
functionality.  An important consideration is how and where it is
appropriate to perform diffserv traffic conditioning in the presence
of tunnel encapsulation and decapsulation.  A few simple mechanisms
are also proposed that limit the complexity that tunnels would
otherwise add to the diffserv traffic conditioning model.  Security
considerations for IPSec tunnels limit the possible functionality in
some circumstances.

This document is a product of the Differentiated Services Working
Group of the IETF.

Hi,

    There was an Internet draft titled "EF PHB Redefined" published in july 2000, but
now that I need it again I can not find it in DiffServ homepage .
Has the draft been invalidated?

Thanks,

Tina,

In my opinion the diffserv PIB needs to be blind to lower layer issues,
i.e. should in no circumstances refer to 802 or any other lower layer
technology. Mapping to lower layers should be handled by a separate
PIB or MIB.

Just to remid everybody, the issues in that draft are being studied
by a design team - see the recent status message from Joel Halpern.

Brian,

Does your reply imply the we ignore the frwk802FilterTable in the Framework
PIB until someone develops Layer 1 and Layer 2 QoS PIBs?

unimportant - but WGs need to stick to their charters.)

Hi all,

I have read several diffserv paper which suggesting to use Bandwidth Broker. 
  I have following question.

The papers says that:

RSVP or any other signaling protocol can be used in stub domain for resource 
allocation. And BB allocate inter domain resource by communicating with next 
doin BB. So far it is clear to me.

In transit domain they suggest again to use aggregated RSVP, I am not sure 
how aggregeted RSVP work here. BB in transit domain has Ingress router 
establish path trough Egress router. OK, it is fine, but when a packet come 
to ingress router, how does the ingress router decide which aggregated RSVP 
flow is packet belongs to. If it is destination adr.based,  that means the 
ingress router will keep all the state of flows in its forwarding table. 
Then it becomes scalibility problem exactlly as in RSVP. Because ingress 
router will keep millions of flows state in its table.

How this situation is handled.

Do they suggest to use tunnelling or what?

If any one answer it
I will be very happy.

Hi,

I have a question about qosMeterCommitedBurst and qosMeterPeakBurst:
Shouldn't they be defined in units of bytes, and not bytes per second (pages
31-32 in the draft-ietf-diffserv-pib-01.txt) ?

Hi folks,

This mail is regards the policing and providing 
QoS garruntees part of DIFFSERV. I have a feeling 
that the current definition of PHBs is incomplete to
implement the AFx as well as the EF class. This is
because in the PHB definition the destination of
a flow is not taken into account.

For example let us consider a simple network confg
as shown below:


Domain| Domain 
X     |   Y
      |
      |   
A ----|---B ---- C
      |     \
      |      \___D
      


In this setup domain X and domain Y are connected
via link AB. Both these domains are independent 
DIFFSERV domain. Let us consider traffic entering
domain Y( ingress node B) through domain X ( egress
node B). 

Now the AF class definition says that the domain Y
and hence node B must provide garuntee that as long
as traffic coming from A is green it MUST forward
it reliably. For example, let us say that the SLA
between node B and node A garuntees that as long
as traffic flowing is less than 200MB per sec it
will treat it as green. But if A doesnot specify
the destination of its traffic than B would be 
forced to allocate this much of bandwidth along all
its link ( if it is to meet the MUST transfer it
reliably requirement). This to me seems a little
bizarre. Usually for CAC and traffic engineering
you should know the endpoints.

To me it seems that DIFFSERV is not useful as a
traffic engineering tool as long as it is not
combined with something like MPLS or it does not
start including end points for identifying flows.

To me an SLA between any two domains MUST mention
the destination address or no garuntees can be
provided and the traffic would be best effort.

However, I do believe that in case, there is no CAC
and hence policing to be performed then DIFFSERV can
be used to prioritize traffic like in regular
CoS-IP world.

Any comments
thanks
C.

Uris:
Thanks!
According to RFC2697 (srTCM) and RFC2698 (trTCM).  Burst size
are measured in bytes.
This is currently under construction.  We will make the correction
in diffserv-pib-02.
Thanks!

Hi, Kwok

Why not use bit per second for Committed Information Rate(CIR), and bit for
Committed Burst Size (CBS) and Excess Burst Size (EBS)? After all, the rate of
all interfaces are measured with the unit of bps. Moreover, using bps for CIR
and bit for CBS and EBS will be compatible with Cisco's GTS.

		Hi, Kwok

		Why not use bit per second for Committed Information
Rate(CIR), and bit for
		Committed Burst Size (CBS) and Excess Burst Size (EBS)?
After all, the rate of
		all interfaces are measured with the unit of bps. Moreover,
using bps for CIR
		and bit for CBS and EBS will be compatible with Cisco's GTS.

Hi,

You say

  "Now the AF class definition says that the domain Y
   and hence node B must provide garuntee that as long
   as traffic coming from A is green it MUST forward
   it reliably."

I'm sorry, but RFC 2597 says nothing of the kind. It says things like

>    An AF implementation MUST detect and respond to long-term congestion
>    within each class by dropping packets, while handling short-term
>    congestion (packet bursts) by queueing packets.

which shows clearly that reliable forwarding is *not* part of the
AF definition. The traffic engineering for services based on AF is
statistical, and obviously requires statistical estimates of traffic
per egress, but there are no guarantees.

Compatibility with an existing product from a specific vendor is

Hi

Thanks for your comments. But...

How about EF? Following is a flick from the EF
definition
RFC2598.

"
   The EF PHB is defined as a forwarding treatment 
   for a particular diffserv aggregate where the
   departure rate of the aggregate's packets from any 
   diffserv node must equal or exceed a configurable
   rate.  The EF traffic SHOULD receive this rate
   independent of the intensity of any other traffic 
   attempting to transit the node.  It SHOULD average 
   at least the configured rate when measured over any
   time interval equal to or longer than the time it 
   takes to send an output link MTU sized packet at 
   the configured rate.  
"

Now I do agree SHOULD is not same as MUST. But given 
the scenario I have drawn how do you meet this 
recommended requirement, over the time scales 
mentioned in the RFC? To me DIFFSERV would be fine 
if we take away the policing part. There is no need
for a meter. Only scheduler is enough. The kind of 
link level rate limiting you are talking about in
DIFFSERV will fall apart once you have network with 
different link speeds. To me DIFFSERV seems like
an attempt to divide one network into as many networks
as the number of DIFFSERV classes, with resources
being
allocated to each of them? This a sub-optimal use of
network resources and does not provide any garuntees
which a lot of applications need.


Anyhow phrases like :
"  The EF traffic SHOULD receive this rate
   independent of the intensity of any other traffic 
   attempting to transit the node.  "

Do not make any sense, till the time you specify what
is the meaning of transit. Does it mean that traffic
coming on interface i and going out of interface j 
will have this commitment? If so it is fine, else
it is losing too much by coarse graining everything.

IMHO, DIFFSERV should provide an option to let
PHBs be associated to destination addresses or egress
points through a network if needed. It will still
allow
diffserv to work in the manner it is working today and

will also enable SPs to provide garuntees which are 
required by some of the real-time applications 


Finally, I think the DIFFSERV-MPLS approach is
the right approach as it really takes into account
need of all kinds of traffic rather than just the
traditional IP services. 


Thanks
C.

Hi 
BB are not in the DiffServ WG's charter but I guess the question was more on
the IntServ/DiffServ capability of edge routers

To follow this question I have two comments regarding the PDB def draft :
. the abstract of the draft mentions that "A PDB is an expression of a
forwarding path treatment, but due to the role that particular choices of
edge and PHB configuration play in its resulting attributes, it is where the
forwarding path
and the control plane interact.". So one should still wonder how far the
control plane topics should be studied in DiffServ (e.g. for the definition
of future PDBs).

. § 4.4 of the draft mentions that "The edge rules might be reconfigured at
a few regular intervals during the day or might happen in response to
signalling decisions thousands of times a day.". It seems this statement is
related to the preceding question and once again how far should it be
considered in the definition of PDBs i.e what is the relathionship between
RSVP agregation and PDB building (cf. figure 2 of the PDB def draft )?

Best regards

The intent was to make it clear that we can *separate* the study of
the control plane and how the edge is configured from the mechanisms
we need in the edge and the forwarding path effects of a particular
configuration. Control Plane topics are specifially out of charter
for the Diffserv WG, but someone implementing differentiated services
in a network must configure in some fashion. As has been said in
RFCs, I-Ds, talks, and emails, we *expect* that would start out in
some static fashion (not unlike early routing) and then progress
to a more dynamic control if needed and once we learn from early
deployments. The notion is to design control functions from experiences
with "running code" not to try to decide, absent experience, what QoS
control should do and then define it in concrete and mix it up into
the forwarding path so it can't be changed. Another aspect we've been
trying to reflect is that different ISPs have different notions of QoS
and how they want to use it. This is not the time to design a one-size
fits
all control plane.

We are now in the "experimental" phase of differentiated services.

The meaning of transit (from www.dictionary.com):

tran·sit (trnst, -zt) 
 n. Abbr. t. 

        1.The act of passing over, across, or through; passage. 
        2.Conveyance of people or goods from one place to another,
especially on a local public transportation system. 
        3.A transition or change, as to a spiritual existence at death. 
        4.Astronomy. 
             a.The passage of a celestial body across the observer's
meridian. 
             b.The passage of a smaller celestial body or its shadow
across the disk of a larger celestial body. 
        5.A surveying instrument similar to a theodolite that measures
horizontal and vertical angles. 

Definition 1 is what we had in mind. I would have thought the others
didn't fit.

It is difficult to tell if you mean by the above: "coming
in on a specific interface i and going out of a specific
interface j" or "coming in on some arbitrary interface i
and going out on some arbitrary interface j".

Again, it is difficult to tell if you mean "associating"
in the sense of applying a classifier on that destination
address and when there is a match, treating it with that
PHB (which is, of course, possible) of if you mean you
want to specifically take all the packets marked for a particular
per-node forwarding behavior and ensure that they egress the
network at a particular point. This is clearly something in
the domain of the control plane, not the forwarding path and
would require that the IGP make a decision based on the DSCP
it seems. This is the wrong working group for that.

Then it sounds like your needs are being met. MPLS is a control
plane approach using diffserv mechanisms in the FP. If you like
that approach, it isn't clear what you want this WG to do.

[..]

n. That's short for noun.

It's unfortunate that you couldn't find a definition supporting your
use of 'transit' as a verb.

Why we have to verb rare nouns instead of saying something perfectly
clear to English-is-second-language-speakers as 'attempting to travel
through' is beyond me. The challenge is perfectly reasonable; 'passing
over' often means 'avoiding', making the use ambiguous as well as
ungrammatical.

If you must resort to quoting a dictionary definition, you need a
rewrite.

Hello, 

I am new to the list.  I am curious if anyone has used diffserv with the
IBM 2216 router?  

I have done some tests with the router & IPv6 Traffic Class and Flow
Label bits.  I was interested in finding out if the router did any kind
of prioritizing based on these header fields.  My initial tests show
that it does not, and I can't get any answers from IBM regarding this. 
The documentation lists nothing about doing QoS with these fields.  I do
know that the router supports diffserv (which is new to me -- I am
reading the RFC's now).  I understand the DS bits are really the Traffic
Class bits in IPv6, so my next step is to try to apply some diffserv
policies at the router based on RFC recommendations and re-run my tests
to see what I get.  So, I am curious if diffserv looks like it will be
the de-facto standard for QoS in IPv6, and if so, the current traffic
class label defined in RFC 2460 - will no longer be used as such, but
instead dedicated entirely to diffserv??

Davis

Well, the EF PHB is being studied by a design team at present
because there are indeed one or two problems in the definition.
So maybe we can discuss this when the design team reports back.

Sorry, any kind of QOS mechanism without metering and policing
makes no sense whatever to me. A scheduler is not enough.

Of course not; you configure the rates so that they fit into
the lowest speed links.

Exactly

Hello? There is no free lunch. If you fully commit resources
in a packet switched network with self-similar traffic
distributions, you certainly can't give any guarantees.
That's today's Internet. Mathematically, it's only by
under-committing resources that you can give guarantees
to some traffic streams without starving others.

Like any PHB, EF refers to the behavior at a specific egress.
What this says is that the EF rate should be delivered
at a specific egress, independent of other traffic.

No, PHBs are stateless so that they can be processed
at line speed only by looking at the 6-bit DSCP.

No it wouldn't, because it wouldn't scale.

That is what EF is for already.

Well, diffserv was invented to support non-traditional
IP services. Diffserv over MPLS is just one mapping
of diffserv onto a specific lower layer.

Davis,

As far as IPv6 goes - yes, diffserv via the Traffic Class field is supposed to
be identical to diffserv via the IPv4 TOS octet. So far the IPv6 flow label
field is not part of the solution.

IntServ/RSVP is also supposed to work identically for IPv6.

As for the IBM box I will reply to you off-list.

To expand a bit on a point Kathie Nichols made earlier today - I 
think this question can be answered by invoking a couple of key 
assumptions of the diffserv philosophy. Sorry if this is restating 
the obvious..

diffserv assumptions:

1) it is possible to implement useful per-domain QoS behaviors simply 
by concatenating a string of per-hop behaviors that are operating 
correctly and within their stated traffic limits.

2) the fact that you will get the desired per-domain QoS when you 
concatenate a string of correctly operated PHB's is independent of 
how exactly you choose to do this.

Assumption one says a couple of things. One is that indeed there are 
likely to be some restrictions on how much traffic can be handled by 
a PHB, and you have to ensure that the rules are met somehow. The 
other is that the behavior of a PHB is purely local - it can't, for 
example, be expected to know how much delay is occurring at some 
other node in the net. This last point is important because it means 
that diffserv per-domain QoS cannot depend on, say, a signaling 
mechanism to carry information between PHB's.

The second assumption says that it doesn't matter _how_ you ensure 
that the PHB's are operating within their required limits - you can 
choose appropriately for your situation. If that means grossly 
overprovisioning the network with respect to the amount of EF or AF 
traffic you allow in, so that the per-hop operating rules are met 
statically and for any mix of destination addresses, then you will 
get the desired per-domain QoS statically and without having to worry 
about the traffic mix. If you instead want to more tightly allocate 
resources, and use a signaling mechanism to dynamically shuffle PHB 
capacity around to different traffic, you will obtain the same 
per-domain QoS behavior for the traffic that gets it, but the traffic 
that gets the behavior can be selected dynamically by destination, 
source, and/or whatever other selectors you pick. If you make this 
choice you will receive some benefits, but you will also add 
implementation and management complexity. Your choice.

To answer your question, it seems to me that the DiffServ WG is 
concerned with precisely those parts of the above story that don't 
change as different people make the different choices I described 
above. These include things like the behavior of PHB's, including 
restrictions and traffic limits; packet formats used to select a PHB; 
and perhaps, things like edge marking and policing functions that 
combine with PHB's to produce useful per-domain QoS, and even more 
perhaps, the definitions of some widely useful per-domain QoS's.

Conversely, stuff that different people might choose to do 
differently, like signaling or configuration management, is outside 
the scope of the group.

If in your question you meant not "the DiffServ WG" but "Diffserv in 
a larger sense", then, well, there are a lot of people trying 
different things in these areas now, and others that will do so in 
the future. It seems likely that at different points some of these 
things will show up in the IETF, though perhaps not in the DiffServ 
WG, for standardization. Others may stay proprietary or local, and 
others will just not work out so well. Without meaning to put words 
into their mouths, my impression is that it is the perspective of the 
WG chairs that this is exactly what should happen.

>. § 4.4 of the draft mentions that "The edge rules might be reconfigured at
>a few regular intervals during the day or might happen in response to
>signalling decisions thousands of times a day.". It seems this statement is
>related to the preceding question and once again how far should it be

Aggregated RSVP provides one way of managing traffic within a 
diffserv cloud. It can be reasonably dynamic and gives you 
destination-aware (per-path) management, and thus falls on the "more 
control, more complexity" side of the equation. Therefore, it may let 
you allocate more of your resources to high-QoS traffic, and more 
easily shift those resources between customers, but it creates some 
burdens in return. This is all about _who gets_ a PDB, not what the 
PDB is.

If you feel that the ISSLL WG documents on aggregated RSVP don't 
quite do the job for you, your comments would certainly be welcome - 
they're published RFC's already, but there is always a way to improve 
things if need be.

regards,
john

The work in this area is captured in the form of IETF drafts (in the RFC
editor queue) generated by the issll working group. Check out the issll
WG web-site. It'll give you a pretty good idea of who has been working
in this area. As for 'patches' - there are a number of products that
combine RSVP and diffserv. Win2K hosts do so. I believe that in
addition, there are routers and policy managers available from Cisco and
Nortel that do so to varying degrees. I think that Extreme also has
something in this area. I can't speak further for these other companies.

IntServ/DiffServ integration is a topic in the ISSLL working group.
They have two relevant drafts out, which you can find via
http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/issll-charter.html

***** help
Help for diffserv mailing list:

This is email command help for version 1.0 of the "Mailman" list
manager.  The following describes commands you can send to get
information about and control your subscription to Mailman lists at
this site.  A command can be in the subject line or in the body of the
message.

Note that much of the following can also be accomplished via the World
Wide Web, at:

    http://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/diffserv

In particular, you can use the Web site to have your password sent to
your delivery address.

List specific commands (subscribe, who, etc) should be sent to the
*-request address for the particular list, e.g. for the 'mailman'
list, use 'mailman-request@...'.

About the descriptions - words in "<>"s signify REQUIRED items and
words in "[]" denote OPTIONAL items.  Do not include the "<>"s or
"[]"s when you use the commands.

The following commands are valid:

    subscribe [password] [digest-option] [address=<address>]
        Subscribe to the mailing list.  Your password must be given to
        unsubscribe or change your options.  When you subscribe to the
        list, you'll be reminded of your password periodically.
        'digest-option' may be either: 'nodigest' or 'digest' (no
        quotes!)  If you wish to subscribe an address other than the
        address you send this request from, you may specify
        "address=<email address>" (no brackets around the email
        address, no quotes!)

    unsubscribe <password> [address]
        Unsubscribe from the mailing list.  Your password must match
        the one you gave when you subscribed.  If you are trying to
        unsubscribe from a different address than the one you
subscribed
        from, you may specify it in the 'address' field.

    who
        See everyone who is on this mailing list.

    info
        View the introductory information for this list.

    lists
        See what mailing lists are run by this Mailman server.

    help
        This message.

    set <option> <on|off> <password> 
        Turn on or off list options.  Valid options are:

        ack:
            Turn this on to receive acknowlegement mail when you send
            mail to the list.

        digest:
            Receive mail from the list bundled together instead of one
            post at a time.

        plain:
            Get plain-text, not MIME-compliant, digests (only if
            digest is set)

        nomail:
            Stop delivering mail.  Useful if you plan on taking a
            short vacation.

        norcv:
            Turn this on to NOT receive posts you send to the list.
            Does not work if digest is set.

        hide:
            Conceals your address when people look at who is on this
            list.


    options
        Show the current values of your list options.

    password <oldpassword> <newpassword> 
        Change your list password.
    
    end or --
       Stop processing commands (good to do if your mailer
automatically
       adds a signature file - it'll save you from a lot of cruft).


Commands should be sent to diffserv-request@ietf.org

Questions and concerns for the attention of a person should be sent to

    diffserv-admin@ietf.org

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Differentiated Services Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Definition of Differentiated Services Per Domain 
                          Behaviors and Rules for their Specification
	Author(s)	: K. Nichols, B. Carpenter
	Filename	: draft-ietf-diffserv-pdb-def-01.txt
	Pages		: 18
	Date		: 26-Oct-00
	
The differentiated services framework enables quality-of-service
provisioning within a network domain by applying rules at the edges to
create traffic aggregates and coupling each of these with a specific
forwarding path treatment in the domain through use of a codepoint in
the IP header [RFC2474]. The diffserv WG has defined the general
architecture for differentiated services [RFC2475] and has focused on
the forwarding path behavior required in routers, known as 'per-hop
forwarding behaviors' (or PHBs) [RFC2474, RFC2597, and RFC2598]. The WG
has also discussed functionality required at diffserv (DS) domain edges
to select (classifiers) and condition (e.g., policing and shaping)
traffic according to the rules [RFC2475, MODEL, MIB]. Short-term changes
in the QoS goals for a DS domain are implemented by changing only the
configuration of these edge behaviors rather than reconfiguring the
behavior of interior network nodes.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

I am trying to understand how Virutal queues are mapped onto physical 
memory on the routers. The questions below could give a better picture of 
what I am trying to understand.

1) Can there be more than one Queue set along the Data Path of a packet. I 
am thinking more along the lines of the "shaper" and "scheduler" components 
? If yes do each of these components work with/on different virtual queues. 
The shaper has to be queue to packets somewhere if it needs to shape and so 
does the scheduler.

(2) How are these virtual queues related to the physical queues (or 
physical memory) on the routers ? In terms of memory limits and so on.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Vinod

Vinod,

I would like to point you in the direction of the Diffserv PIB for your
second question.  Specifically, take a look at queuesize parameter in the
qosIfQueue table.  This may be a starting point.

Hello,

A Virtual Queue is the collection of packets on a physical queue with a
particular Diffserv 
Code Point (DSCP) marking. 

For example, in the Assured Forwarding PHB, a physical queue can have 3
virtual 
queues: AF11, AF12, and AF13.  Meaning that at any given time, there may be
packets in 
the physical queue with DSCP markings corresponding to AF11,AF12, or AF13
Classes.

To answer your questions:
1. This depends on your implementation, but yes there can be more than one
queue 
along the data path. Virtual Queues appear most often in the physical queues
of scheduler Components.
Most likely your shaper component would use a physical queue.

2. Virtual queues are contained within the physical queues.

We developed and released a Diffserv Model for NS-2 that utilized virtual
queues.
You can check it and some of our related papers out at:

Hi there,

  I am new to DiffServ. I am going to do some project on the
measurement/monitoring on SLA.

  Could you please give me some reference about it?

  Thank you very much!

Qingyu Zhang
