QoS for dVTI

This module provides conceptual information for using egress QoS on Dynamic Virtual Tunnel Interfaces (dVTI). QoS for dVTI allows you to configure a single dVTI tunnel template. This template is replicated to give connectivity to remote endpoints.

Finding Feature Information

Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module. For the latest caveats and feature information, see Bug Search Tool and the release notes for your platform and software release. To find information about the features documented in this module, and to see a list of the releases in which each feature is supported, see the feature information table at the end of this module.

Restrictions for QoS dVTI

  • With hierarchical egress policy-maps, the topmost policy may only have class-default
  • Priority, bandwidth, fair-queue may only be configured at the lowest level of a policy-map hierarchy containing queuing features
  • Bandwidth remaining percent may not be configured at the topmost level of a hierarchical policy-map
  • Only 2000 dVTI tunnels can have QoS configured
  • Output QoS may not be configured on both the dVTI tunnel template and the output physical

Information About QoS for dVTI

A single dVTI template can support numerous connections from routers with static VTI (sVTI) configuration. The dVTI template configuration is typically on a hub router. Remote spoke routers have a sVTI configuration that always points to the hub router.

QoS for dVTI supports the following:

  • Maximum of 2000 dynamic tunnels using QoS from the dVTI tunnel template
  • Scalability for an additional 2000 dynamic tunnels with no QoS on the dVTI tunnel template
  • Low latency egress queuing on dVTI tunnel templates
  • Egress shaping (with and without overhead accounting) on dVTI tunnel templates
  • QoS pre-classify on dVTI tunnel templates

Configuration Examples for QoS for dVTI

Example 2 Layer Rate LLQ for dVTI

This example shows how to configure a 2 Layer egress policy-map on the virtual tunnel interface which gives the following:

  • ToS-specific rate LLQ for certain traffic
  • Overall rate limiting on a per-tunnel basis
  • Additional overhead is considered using the account directive on the shape command in the parent shaper

This example shows how to configure a 2 Layer egress policy-map on the virtual tunnel interface which gives the following:
