Per service microburst monitoring systems and methods for ethernet
Last updated:
Abstract:
Systems and methods in a node in an Ethernet network include, responsive to enabling burst monitoring between the node and a peer node in the Ethernet network, obtaining rate and burst size information from the peer node; configuring a counter at a traffic disaggregation point based on the rate and the burst size information, wherein the counter is based on a dual token bucket that is used to count out-of-profile frames in excess of a Committed Information Rate (CIR); and detecting a burst based on the out-of-profile frames during a monitored time interval.
