LOW Latency / total output drops/Traffic SHaping

Hello everyone,

 

I'm facing a issue which is making me to have nigthmare.

To give an image of the architecture  :

 

|----Cust_LAN---|   RIverbed | SWitch | --- CPE 1 | ----Int g0  is the interface to the WAN ---------> PE1 [BACKBONE L3VPN] 

                                                    |                |

                                                    |                | Back-to-back

|----Cust_LAN-------------------| SWitch | --- CPE 2 | | ----Int g0  is the interface to the WAN ---------> PE2 [BACKBONE L3VPN] 

 

BGP is the protocol configured between CPEs and PEs. There is loadbalancing on CPE 1 via an ebgp session to PE1 and a ebgp session to PE2 via the back-to-back interface . See the configuration part  (X.X.X.X is the loopback of PE1 and Y.Y.Y.Y is the loopback of PE2)

router bgp 65000
 bgp log-neighbor-changes

 redistribute connected
 neighbor X.X.X.X remote-as 65001

 neighbor X.X.X.X  timers 15 45

 neighbor X.X.X.X  soft-reconfiguration inbound

 neighbor Y.Y.Y.Y remote-as 65001

 neighbor Y.Y.Y.Y ebgp-multihop 2

neighbor Y.Y.Y.Y timers 15 45

neighbor Y.Y.Y.Y soft-reconfiguration inbound

maximum-paths 2

I'm learning a default route and I'm seeing that the loadbalancing is in action.

On the gig0 interfaces i've configured only the shaping to allow 10 Mbps. This means that on CPE 1 i can send an amount of trafic of 20 Mbps.

Our customer are facing slow trafic on that site. After troubleshooting i saw output drops on CPE 1 and CPE2 which is not normal for me because the test I did with a customer , is to connect a PC to CPE1 and use their application and send traffic to their central site. 

The latency is 50 s , when the customer is using another Service provider with 2Mbps to the same central site the delay is 27 s.

The curious thing is that i've output drops on the interface as you can see :

With 20 Mbps we should have such a behaviour . Note : the CPE's are cisco892F. 

Can anyone help me to fix that weird issue ?  Need help.

 

Thank you.
