Re: Puzzling QoS Issue

Try adjusting removing the child policy from the parent, reapply the
parent, and see if issue is still there.

If yes, try adjusting queue-limit of "class class-default" in parent policy.

Perhaps also adjust the tx-ring parameters on the interface itself.

Does the CPU go high? If yes, what process?

Perhaps try changing "bandwidth remaining" to an explicit allocation (aka
bandwidth xx) and see if that helps.

Thanks,
