MST on EVC – Design Points
MST only – no boundary functionality (i.e. peer in the port must be running MST)
Outer Encap VLAN to MST Instance Mapping
No changes to existing MST configuration
Support for unambiguous Outer Encap VLAN
Outer VLAN Tag must be unique (i.e. encap 100 or encap 100 second 200-400)
No Support for the following service instances
Default
Untagged
Range or list on outer tag (i.e. encap 100,200 or encap 100-200)
Priority tagged (not supported by EVC on 7600)
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 22
MST on EVC – Design Points (cont)
Bridged Services blocking
Only bridge-domain EVCs are blocked
Service instances with same Outer VLAN must be bridged together
Automatic addition of Bridge-domain into the VLAN Database
VLAN local significance: MST acts on outer Encap VLAN. Bridging acts on Bridge-domain
Object visible to MST: [Port, Outer VLAN] aka VPORT
Single MST “Region”, 64+1 MST Instances
VPLS or Switchport in the core
No TCN grouping – when merging multiple customers in the same outer Vlan, TCN affects all customers on that MST instance

SRD EVC Scalability Update
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 25
VPLS Scalability
Nothing changed except the maximum peers per VFI
Maximum peers per VFI increase to be 110 if the uplink is SIP-400 or ES20 or ES40
If uplink is SIP-600, the number will drop to 60 per system unless you manually configure it to be 110. In this case, SIP-600 won’t be selected as VPLS uplink even if it’s present and configured on the box
AGG1-rossi(config)#platform vfi max-peers ?
<110-110> max peers value allowed 60 or 110
<60-60> max peers value allowed 60 or 110
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 26
EVC Scalability 32k EVCs per box independent of service (local
connect, xconnect, bridge-domain)
16K EVCs per line card (ES20, ES40, SIP-400)
8K EVCs per port without QoS, 4K EVCs per port with QoS
Maximum EVCs (service instances) per Bridge-domain–120 EVCs per bridge-domain per SIP-400
–110 EVCs per bridge-domain per NP for ES20 and ES40, thus ES20 support 220 EVCs per bridge-domain per linecard, ES40 support 440 EVCs per bridge-domain per linecard
Note,
–Both VPLS VC and service instance VC are presented as pseudo port which require LTL index resource. The LTL index is shared among VPLS VC and service instance VC

EVC Port-Channel with LACP
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 28
Overview
Port Channel interfaces represent aggregated Ethernet ports for both bandwidth increasing and link redundancy
7600 supports routed interfaces and L2 switchports over port channels long time ago
EVC Port Channel allows Ethernet service instances (EVCs) to be configured over port channel interfaces. It’s supported from SRCrelease with static channel mode “on”
SRD release will support LACP as channel protocol in addition to static channel mode on configuration. PAGP is not supported
SIP-400 doesn’t support port-channel

Ingress traffic for an EVC can be received on any of the member ports of the port channel depends on the load balancing algorithm used on the peer device Egress traffic for an EVC is transmitted out of a single pre-determined member port. Thus the egress load balancing is per service instance

L2TPv3 on ES-40
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 38
L2TPv3 Overview
An L2TPv3 tunnel sits between a PE pair, usually terminating on loopback interfaces as the tunnel endpoints
One L2TPv3 tunnel can have multiple data connections, and each data connection is termed as an L2TPv3 session
Each session is identified by a session ID which is unique across the entire router.

SRD brings in L2TPv3 on ES-40.
The minimum requirement is ES-40 should be facing the CE.
Core facing can be any card
The command “mls reserve l2tpv3 slot [1-13] [processor [1-4]]”is being introduced along with this feature
Supported features
• Ethernet port to port mode
• Ethernet VLAN to VLAN mode
• DF Bit Reflection from Inner IP to Outer IP
• L2TPV3 Packet ToS Marking
• Path MTU Discovery. Path MTU Discovery is enabled when “ip mtu” is configured for the PW.
• L2TPV3 IP Packet Fragmentation , performed by RP

What is Video Monitoring
Video Monitoring is for video transmission quality
MPEG is the coding scheme for digitized video/audio. The network over which it transports are different
IP + UDP + MPEG <-- What we support
IP + UDP + RTP + MPEG
The different transmission methods use different monitoring techniques
METRICS – various measuring data by using those techniques
All METRICS are performance measurement data with respect to the video transmission quality (delay, jitter, latency, loss)
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 48
MDI Metric (RFC 4445)
Components:
• Media Loss Rate (MLR): Rate at which discontinuities are detected in the flow
• Delay Factor (DF): Measured as max difference between the arrival and drain of packets
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 49
IP-CBR Metric
Components:
• Media Rate Variation (MRV): Variation in the media rate when compared with the nominal media rate (CBR)
Expected MRV = (Actual rate – Expected rate)/(Expected rate)
• Delay Factor (DF): Measured as max difference between the arrival and drain of packets – [Same as DF in MDI metric]
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 50
TCA (Threshold Crossing Alerts)
The routers can be made to generate SYSLOG messages (alarms) when the thresholds have reached
MDI Metrics: MDI-MLR, MDI-DF
IP-CBR Metrics: IP-CBR-MRV, IP-CBR-DF
TCA Severity Mapping to SYSLOG
alerts (severity=1) => map to TCA severity level "critical"
critical (severity=2)=> map to TCA severity level "major"
errors (severity=3)=> map to TCA severity level "minor"
warnings (severity=4)=> map to TCA severity level "warning"
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 51
MSE (Media Stop Event)
MSE is a boolean value representing that no packets have been received on a valid flow for the entire measurement period. It assumes knowledge of the transport rules for valid flow delivery.
The following conditions should trigger a valid MSE:
o Server failure
o Upstream network node failure
The following example will NOT trigger MSE:
o IGMP Leave
o SPT (shortest path tree) switchover
o RPF path change
© 2009 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 52
Ingress/Egress Monitoring VideoMon metrics can be collected on both ingress and egress interfaces
Ingress: Pros: Less configuration; Single set of data per multicast flow
Cons: Provides data for preceding network segment; Deployment restricted
Egress: Pros: Measurement includes current hop; Deployment not restricted
Cons: More configuration and monitoring points; Potentially redundant and voluminous data

1. Configure ACL to filter the flows to
monitor
2. Configure class-map
3. Configure policy-map
3.1 Flow parameter to define how you
want the monitoring to be done
3.2 Configure Flow
monitoring TCA reaction
4. Apply on the interface with right
direction

Case Study – MediaNet The ability to proactively monitor the
health of the infrastructure carrying MPEG-2 streams is essential for increasing IP video subscribers’ quality of experience (QoE) (MDI Metric is used)
o Case 1: many providers already deploy multicast based service through the use of PIM-SSM
o Case 2: providers planning on deploying point-to-multipoint RSVP-TE (LSM)
Enable Vidmon for MDI metric on Ingress ports of 7600-1, and egress ports of both 7600-2 and 7600-3
Impairment is introduced between 7600-3 and CRS-1-2
Expected results:
- Only egress ports on 7600-3 will report error of the stream
