Configuring the Switch

The Switch supports a common method of prioritizing layer 3/4 traffic to meet application requirements.. Traffic priorities can be specified in the IP header of a frame using the priority bits in the Type of Service (ToS) octet.. If priority bits are used, the ToS octet may contain six bits for Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) service.. When these services are enabled, the priorities are mapped to a Class of Service value by the Switch and the traffic then sent to the corresponding output queue.. Because different priority information may be contained in the traffic, the Switch maps priority values to the output queues in the following manner:

The precedence for priority mapping is DSCP Priority and then Default Port Priority..

To enable DSCP priority mapping, check the DSCP Priority Status Enabled checkbox..

Priority Status  Enables the DSCP priority mapping.. (Enabled is the default setting..)

DSCP to CoS  Maps Differentiated Services Code Point values to CoS values..

The commands described in this section are used to configure Quality of Service (QoS) classification criteria and service policies.. Differentiated Services (DiffServ) provides policy-based management mechanisms used for prioritizing network resources to meet the requirements of specific traffic types on a per hop basis.. Each packet is classified upon entry into the network based on access lists, IP Precedence, DSCP values, or VLAN lists.. Using access lists allows you to select traffic based on Layer 2, Layer 3, or Layer 4 information contained in each packet.. Based on configured network policies, different types of traffic can be marked for different types of forwarding..

All switches or routers that access the Internet rely on class information to provide the same forwarding treatment to packets in the same class.. Class information can be assigned by end hosts, or switches or routers along the path.. Priority can then be assigned based on a general policy, or a detailed examination of the packet.. However, note that detailed examination of packets should take place close to the network edge so that core switches and routers are not overloaded.. Switches and routers along the path can use class information to prioritize the resources allocated to different traffic classes.. The manner in which an individual device handles traffic in the DiffServ architecture is called per-hop behavior.. All devices along a path should be configured in a consistent manner to construct a consistent end-to-end QoS solution..

Class Map

A class map is used for matching packets to a specified class.. The class map uses the Access Control List filtering engine, so you must also set an ACL to enable filtering for the criteria specified in the class map..

The class map is used with a policy map to create a service policy for a specific interface that defines packet classification, service tagging, and bandwidth policing..

NOTE: One or more class maps can be assigned to a policy map..

Class Name  Name of the class map.. (Range: 1-32 characters)

Type  Only one match command is permitted per class map, so the match-any field refers to the criteria specified by the lone match command..

Description  A brief description of a class map.. (Range: 1- 256 characters)

Add  Creates a new class map using the entered class name and description..

Remove  Removes the selected class from the list..

Edit Class Element  Modifies the class map criteria used to classify ingress traffic..
