We're looking to implement campus wide MPLS, and have had good experiences so far. Though I'm wondering what happens when we actually have real production traffic over the network, for example nightly backups etc. that might use huge amount of the bandwidth available. Mainly we have 2x10G LAGs between the MPLS switches, but the virtualization environment could push that much traffic and our backup system could take that much traffic in.
So far we haven't had much problems in our current network but I'd like to prepare us. Do you have any recommended reading how to configure QoS to limit for example this nightly backup traffic or how to classify it to a lower level?
Or anything else we should take into account before going to production with this?
Thanks!
