RHK Telecom Negotiation Tips
Educating the Enterprise Customer
• “Aggregate spending into one contract to draw
more bids”
– Support for Triple play of Voice, Video, and Data
• “Include renegotiation clause in the event of a
downturn”
– Dynamic bandwidth provisioning
• “Assure latest technology will be used”
– Ethernet-based services in high demand
• “Include termination clauses for poor service”
– Carrier-class availability and verifiable SLAs
THIS IS
Metro Service Platform
• Advanced Traffic Management
– Bi-directional bandwidth control
– Hierarchical quality of service
– High performance hardware implementation
• Global Scalability
– VPLS
– H-VPLS
• Carrier-class Resiliency

Differentiated Services
Requirements
• Flexible provisioning of Bandwidth:
– Bandwidth control: Rate shaping, policing
• Differentiated service delivery:
– Proven end-to-end Quality of Service
• Wire-speed Implementation of Traffic management
– Low latency

Traffic Management
Rate Shaping
• Gigabit throughput on any port with over-subscription
– Flexible provisioning of bandwidth per subscriber
• Bi-Directional Rate shaping
– Support for ingress and egress rate shaping
• 3 Color Rate Shaping
• Committed Information Rate (CIR) for guaranteed traffic
• Peak Rate (PR) for Burst Services
• Marking for non-conforming excess traffic
• Granular and Accurate Rate Shaping with 1 and 2 kbps
increments for Ingress and Egress rate limiting;
• Statistics collection: CIR, PR and Dropped Bytes
• Reserve or limit bandwidth per application/per
subscriber
THIS IS
Traffic Management
Quality of Service
• Quality of Service Implementation:
– Bandwidth allocation per user / per application
– Classification
• “QoS” aware and unaware applications
– Marking
• DiffServ – IP QoS, 802.1p – Ethernet QoS
• Classify, Mark/Re-mark, Schedule
– Scheduling
• 8 hardware-based queues per port to support:

BW Dynamic Allocation = Enables customer to use all bandwidth and fill
it in order of service priority
Each customer has the minimum (=CIR), and maximum (=PR) bandwidth setting
Available resources within the customer’s total bandwidth are allocated to the other service types in
a weighted fashion after priority CIR is met
THIS IS
High Performance Traffic Management
Supports triple-play: voice, video and data
• Wire-speed implementation
of network processing and
control
• Non-blocking architecture
delivering “zero” latency
• No impact on performance
when features are
activated:
– Rate shaping
– QoS
Maximum Latency
For Voice
• Latency is independent of
network load
THIS IS
High Performance Traffic Management
Supports triple-play: voice, video and data
• Scalable Multicast Service Delivery
– Wire-Speed forwarding of Unicast and Multicast simultaneously
• Adding multicast will not affect unicast forwarding
– Supports increasing number of user
• Every new receiver will not slow forwarding
• Every port in the network can potentially be a receiver
– Supports increasing number of video streams
• Every new transmitter will not slow forwarding
• Every port in the network can potentially be a transmitter
– No performance drop for video applications
• Video Conferencing
• Video Streaming and distribution

Layer 2 Multiplexing

• End-to-end Layer 2 subscriber services
• Provides subscriber scalability and separation of subscriber/provider

Solutions for Layer-2 Resiliency
• IEEE 802.1w/s  IEEE 802.1D
– Standard - Rapid spanning tree and Multiple instance spanning tree
• IEEE 802.3ad
– Link aggregation often used as 1:1 protection switching
– Provides the benefit of enabling use of “sparing” or standby link when both
interfaces are operating normally
• Dual homed software based redundant ports;
• Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP):
– Topology intelligent Ethernet protection;
• Ethernet Automatic Protection System (EAPS) RFC 3619
