Folks, as announced in my previous eMail, please find below a proposal how to address QoS in draft-ietf-dmm-fpc-cpdp-00.
The draft adopts a model to abstract forwarding and policy configuration for DMM using logical ports which bind properties. This can be applied at Agents to any Data-Plane Node (DPN) configuration, routers, network controllers, switches. Adding QoS properties per port should be in-line with RFC7222 in case of GBR and MBR. More needs to be considered for aggregates, such as per-MN-AMBR, per-Session-AMBR. Here, the Control-Plane logic may accomplish configuration of the Data-Plane for an MN or Session using a single port or multiple ports. This can be tackled by permitting a Client to bind an AMBR attribute/value to a single port or to a group of ports. Whether the aggregate applies per-MN or per Session, should be kept in the application logic and be kept transparent to the Data-Plane. Information coming with an AMBR attribute needs to comprise a list of port identifies (PRT_ID) to which the aggregate applies, like: QOS_AMBR_CONF: Aggregate Bitrate //gives the maximum aggregate value List of Port-IDs //defines the group of ports where metering applies Please let me know if anything is missing. marco
