Configuring QoS

Table 11-1	Traffic Class Commands

Command		Purpose

ML_Series(config)# class-mapclass-map-name		Specifies the user-defined name of the traffic class. Names can be a
		maximum of 40 alphanumeric characters. If match-allor
		match-anyis not specified, traffic must match all the match criteria
		to be classified as part of the traffic class.
		There is no default-match criteria.
		Multiple match criteria are supported. The command matches either
		all or any of the criteria, as controlled by the match-alland
		match-anysubcommands of the class-mapcommand.
		Note The ML-100T-8 supports a maximum of 126 user-defined
		class maps, plus one default class map named
		“class-default”. The ML-Series card on the ONS 15454
		SONET/SDH supports a maximum of 254 user-defined
		class maps, plus one default class map named
		“class-default”.

ML_Series(config)# class-mapmatch-all		Specifies that all match criteria must be met for traffic entering the
class-map-name		traffic class to be classified as part of the traffic class.

ML_Series(config)# class-mapmatch-any		Specifies that one of the match criteria must be met for traffic
class-map-name		entering the traffic class to be classified as part of the traffic class.

ML_Series(config-cmap)# match any		Specifies that all packets will be matched.

ML_Series(config-cmap)# match bridge-group		Specifies the bridge-group-number against whose contents packets
bridge-group-number		are checked to determine if they belong to the class.

ML_Series(config-cmap)# match cos cos-number		Specifies the CoS value against whose contents packets are checked
		to determine if they belong to the class.

ML_Series(config-cmap)# match input-interface		Specifies the name of the input interface used as a match criterion
interface-name		against which packets are checked to determine if they belong to the
		class.
		The shared packet ring (SPR) interface used in RPR (SPR1) is a
		valid interface-name for the ML-Series card. For more information
		on the SPR interface, see Chapter 14, “Configuring Resilient Packet
		Ring on the ML-Series Card.”
		The input-interfacechoice is not valid when applied to the INPUT
		of an interface (redundant).

ML_Series(config-cmap)# match ip dscp		Specifies up to eight DSCP values used as match criteria. The value
ip-dscp-value		of each service code point is from 0 to 63.

ML_Series (config-cmap)# match ip precedence		Specifies up to eight IP precedence values used as match criteria.

Creating a Traffic Policy

To configure a traffic policy, use the policy-mapglobal configuration command to specify the traffic policy name, and use the following configuration commands to associate a traffic class, which was configured with the class-mapcommand and one or more QoS features. The traffic class is associated

Cisco Systems has established itself as a leader in the networking domain, offering a wide array of solutions to meet the needs of modern businesses. Among its impressive product lineup are the Cisco 15310-CL and 15310-MA routers, designed to provide advanced network performance and reliability.

The Cisco 15310-CL is a versatile platform that primarily serves as a carrier-class router aimed at supporting high-speed data and voice services. It is built to handle the demands of large enterprises and service providers, offering a robust design that ensures maximum uptime and performance. One of its standout features is its modular architecture, which enables users to customize their configurations based on specific application needs. This scalability allows for future expansion without the need for a complete hardware overhaul.

Key technologies integrated into the Cisco 15310-CL include high-density Ethernet interfaces and a comprehensive suite of Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocol support. The device is capable of supporting multiple types of connections, including TDM, ATM, and Ethernet. This flexibility makes it an ideal choice for organizations that require seamless migration between various service types. Moreover, with features such as MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) support and advanced Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms, the router ensures that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth and low latency required for optimal performance.

In contrast, the Cisco 15310-MA focuses on access solutions, providing a cost-effective entry point for businesses looking to enhance their network capabilities. It is well-suited for smaller offices or branch locations that need reliable connectivity without the expense and complexity associated with larger systems. The device supports a range of access methods and provides essential features like firewall capabilities, VPN support, and comprehensive security measures to protect sensitive data.

Both models benefit from Cisco's commitment to security and manageability, offering features like enhanced encryption protocols and user authentication mechanisms that help safeguard networks against threats. Additionally, they can be managed through Cisco’s intuitive software tools, simplifying configuration and monitoring tasks for IT administrators.

The Cisco 15310-CL and 15310-MA are ideal solutions for businesses seeking to enhance their network infrastructure, ensuring firms can keep pace with evolving technology demands while maintaining a focus on security and performance. Their combination of advanced features, modular capabilities, and robust support makes them valuable assets in the networking landscape.
