Restrictions for Aggregate EtherChannel Quality of Service
-
The configuration of QoS on Ethernet Virtual Circuit (EVC) with an aggregate port-channel interface is not supported.
-
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) and IP over Ethernet (IPoE) sessions in the context of the Intelligent Services Gateway (ISG) and Intelligent Wireless Access Gateway (iWAG) (with or without QoS) across an aggregate port-channel interface is not supported.
-
Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) with QoS on an aggregate port-channel interface is not supported.
-
Xconnect with QoS on an aggregate port-channel interface is not supported.
-
The use of fragment and service-fragment Modular QoS CLI (MQC) keywords in conjunction with the aggregate port-channel interface type is not supported.
-
The aggregate-type port-channel interfaces have the following limitations:
-
All the member links of a port channel must be of the same speed. This prevents a potential packet reordering issue. It is not supported to combine Gigabit Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Ethernet interfaces into the same port channel.
-
10-Gigabit Ethernet is supported in Cisco IOS XE 3.16.3 or later (it is not supported in Cisco IOS XE 3.17). 10-Gigabit Ethernet is also supported in Cisco IOS XE Denali 16.3 and later.
-
-
MPOL policy applied on both aggregate port-channel main interface and port-channel sub-interface is not supported by any Cisco IOS XE 3S release and is not supported on Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.5.x or earlier.
-
QoS on an aggregate port-channel subinterface is not supported for Cisco IOS XE 3.16.2 or earlier (and it is also not supported in Cisco IOS XE 3.17).
Restrictions for PPPOE Session QoS over Aggregate EtherChannel
-
All the member links of a port channel must be of the same speed. This prevents a potential packet reordering issue. It is not supported to combine Gigabit Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Ethernet interfaces into the same port channel.
-
MPOL policy that is applied on both aggregate port-channel main interface and port-channel sub-interface is not supported.
-
MPOL policy applied on both aggregate port-channel interface and PPPOE session is supported. The main interface or sub-interface QoS service policy is limited to only a class-default shaper (it can only contain the class class-default and shape command). Additional QoS configurations are not supported on the main interface or sub-interface when QoS service policies are applied to the main or sub-interface and the PPPOE session simultaneously.
-
Before PPPOE session QoS is applied, the following command is required:
platform qos port-channel-aggregate port-channel interface
If the port-channel is already configured in any form, the above command fails.
-
The QoS policy can be applied to an aggregate port-channel interface subject to the following scalability limits:
-
Upto 8 port channels
-
Upto 4 member links in a port channel
-
Member links can be split across multiple shared port adapters (SPAs) and SPA interface processor (SIP) cards
-
