Principle: LPT can transfer end-to-end connectivity of port link

state( UP/DOWN). If link state is DOWN, both side equipments will switch
immediately to backup path.

Packet Classification

Packets arriving at the interface are first classified and then enter the

tail of the corresponding queues according to their respective types.

The transmission of the packets is based on the priority.

Flow Classification

Classification of the data packets into several service types,

which can be conducted according to different criteria.

The port flow means the classification of the data packets

according to the ports concerned.

The port+VLAN flow means the classification of the data

packets according to the port+VLAN criterion

CAR: Committed Access Rate

The CAR mode adopts token bucket for traffic control.

Principle of dual-bucket 3-color mode

Each token bucket has its own capacity and token generation
speed, which are respectively cir, cbs, pir, pbs. Cir indicates
the guaranteed rate, while pir the peak rate

Shaping

The typical function of traffic shaping is to restrict the traffic and

burst flowing out of a certain link in a certain network, so that
packets of this type can be transmitted at an even rate. Traffic
shaping is usually implemented through buffer and token
bucket.

When the packet transmission rate is too high, the packets are
first buffered and then transmitted at an even speed under the
control of the token bucket.

CoS: Class of Service

Congestion management is used to classify these packets and group

them into different queues. The queue scheduling processes the

packets of different priority levels accordingly, that is, packets of higher
priority level are processed first.

VLAN pri CoS: When a certain flow is configured with this kind of CoS,

the packets of the flow are scheduled to a certain specified queue

according to the VLAN Pri value carried in the packets.

IP TOS CoS: When a certain flow is configured with this kind of CoS,

the packets of the flow are scheduled to a certain specified queue

according to the IP TOS value of the IPv4 carried in the packets.

DSCP CoS: When a certain flow is configured with this kind of CoS,

the packets of the flow are scheduled to a certain specified queue

according to the IP DSCP value of the IPv6 carried in the packets.
