We have similar setup, we backhaul customers to IP POP via our MPLS transport 
network in the
metro.

We setup 10GE NNI interfaces between IP and transport network and configure 
shaping on the NNI
to subscriber line speed for that EVC.  Likewise, for customer's upload 
direction, shaping is
performed in opposite direction.

On the customer facing PE, we police the ingress on customer port (so that will 
be customer's
upload bandwidth) to prevent admitting too much traffic than what the shaper 
would eventually
allow at the point of NNI interconnection.

Since their upload bandwidth is shaped at the interconnect site, the ingress 
policer at the
customer facing PE does not get violated in normal cases, unless customer has a 
compromised
host sending large burst of uncontrolled fire-and-forget traffic (e.g. DoS).

We never use LAG for NNI interfaces, precisely because queueing and policing 
get complicated.
Each NNI is independent 10GE interfaces as we hand-off from IP to transport 
network, and each
EVC backhauling a customer never exceeds 3 Gbps subscriber speed.

If the customer needs to be a 10G port to IP network (regardless of whether 
burstable or
full-rate 10G), we put them on optical transport and deliver the service via 
unprotected
10G wave.  This will change ofcourse with the ongoing deployment of 100G 
interfaces.

We don't do any complex QoS or classifications for internet traffic uses -- 
after all, if we
had a choice, we would rather put layer-3 routers at every customer facing 
site, but alas that
is not very cost effective right now.  We just police & queue (no 
classification) to enforce
traffic contract and prevent over-admittance of traffic onto the metro 
transport network.

HTH,
James
