Resending. Would others have interest in the area of Traffic/QoS policies ? We can try to have some discussions prior to the summit and meet up at the summit to converge towards a proposal. Henry is looking at some possibilities for queuing disciplines to add to the notes below so we can converge. We would definitely like to get a sense of what others would be interested in as well and get more folks involved.<br>

Thanks<br>

<br>
Hi All:<br>
<br>
While rate limiting is an important aspect of QoS (Nachi - ur BP proposal and something that Henry is exploring), my colleague Dan Florea and I have been looking at some requirements for DSCP marking for end to end QoS . We would like to bring the different aspects under a single framework for Traffic Policies. We had some inputs from key partners as well, so we wanted to get it out to the community for some early feedback.<br>
<br>
Would it make sense for a solution that can address:<br>
<br>
1) Multiple types of actions (marking, rate-limit (we can get more fancy with multi queue scheduling)<br>
depending on the capabilities of the underlying datapath.<br>
2) A notion of classifiers, that can segment the traffic on a port (based on the usual suspects such as the<br>
5 tuple with masking to aggregate a block, incoming DSCP, and possibly other fields)<br>
<br>
Thus, the policy involves two components - the classifier and the action on the traffic matching the classifier.<br>
<br>
So the policy applied on a port could represent a logic as below:<br>
<br>
if traffic_class == video:<br>
mark_dscp(AF3)<br>
if traffic_class == voip:<br>
mark_dscp(EF)<br>
if traffic_class == generic_user:<br>
if bandwidth > 100000:<br>
apply_rate-limit()<br>
if traffic_class == nomatch:<br>
do_some_default_action()<br>
<br>
For the case where we want the action to be applied on all traffic on a port - not specifying a classifier can default the action on all traffic.<br>
<br>
if True:<br>
if bandwidth > 100000:<br>
apply_rate-limit()<br>
<br>
There is precedence for such a model in the switching world and this will look a lot like Quantum security groups with more options on it.<br>
<br>
Pls provide ur feedback and would also like to have an opportunity to continue the discussion at the Summit. If there is common ground we can collaborate on a BP.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>

A very high level stab and sense of what the CLI's could look like (this is just to give an idea of some of the fields):<br>
<br>
The Classifier (this is optional - needed only if we want to have different actions on different classes of traffic.<br>
<br>
quantum classifier-create [-h]<br>
[--request-format {json,xml}]<br>
[--tenant-id TENANT_ID]<br>
[--src-ip <ip/mask><br>
[--dst-ip <ip/mask><br>
[--src-port <port-range><br>
[--dst-port <port-range><br>
[--dscp DSCP]<br>
[--other-things-to-be-added <value>]<br>
NAME<br>
<br>
Action specifier:<br>
<br>
quantum traffic-policy-rule-create [-h]<br>
[--request-format {json,xml}]<br>
[--tenant-id TENANT_ID]<br>
[--classifier <classifier-name>]<br>
[--direction [ingress|egress]<br>
[--action <mark-dscp=<val>><br>
NAME<br>
<br>
--action can take on appropriate action keys and desired value such as:<br>
<rate-limit=100000> etc.<br>
<br>
<br>
We can also aggregate multiple rules in to a single block which can make them more manageable.<br>
