Chapter 36 Configuring QoS

Configuring Standard QoS

Mapping DSCP or CoS Values to an Ingress Queue and Setting WTD Thresholds

You can prioritize traffic by placing packets with particular DSCPs or CoSs into certain queues and adjusting the queue thresholds so that packets with lower priorities are dropped.

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to map DSCP or CoS values to an ingress queue and to set WTD thresholds. This procedure is optional.

 

Command

Purpose

Step 1

 

 

configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

 

 

mls qos srr-queue input dscp-map

Map DSCP or CoS values to an ingress queue and to a threshold ID.

 

queue queue-id threshold threshold-id

By default, DSCP values 0–39 and 48–63 are mapped to queue 1 and

 

dscp1...dscp8

 

threshold 1. DSCP values 40–47 are mapped to queue 2 and threshold 1.

 

 

 

or

By default, CoS values 0–4, 6, and 7 are mapped to queue 1 and threshold

 

 

 

mls qos srr-queue input cos-map

1. CoS value 5 is mapped to queue 2 and threshold 1.

 

queue queue-id threshold threshold-id

For queue-id, the range is 1 to 2.

 

cos1...cos8

 

For threshold-id, the range is 1 to 3. The drop-threshold percentage

 

 

 

 

for threshold 3 is predefined. It is set to the queue-full state.

 

 

For dscp1...dscp8, enter up to eight values, and separate each value

 

 

with a space. The range is 0 to 63.

 

 

For cos1...cos8, enter up to eight values, and separate each value with

 

 

a space. The range is 0 to 7.

Step 3

 

 

mls qos srr-queue input threshold

Assign the two WTD threshold percentages for (threshold 1 and 2) to an

 

queue-id threshold-percentage1

ingress queue. The default, both thresholds are set to 100 percent.

 

threshold-percentage2

For queue-id, the range is 1 to 2.

 

 

 

 

For threshold-percentage1 threshold-percentage2, the range is 1 to

 

 

100. Separate each value with a space.

 

 

Each threshold value is a percentage of the total number of queue

 

 

descriptors allocated for the queue.

Step 4

 

 

end

Return to privileged EXEC mode.

Step 5

 

 

show mls qos maps

Verify your entries.

 

 

The DSCP input queue threshold map appears as a matrix. The d1 column

 

 

specifies the most-significant digit of the DSCP number; the d2 row

 

 

specifies the least-significant digit in the DSCP number. The intersection

 

 

of the d1 and the d2 values provides the queue ID and threshold ID; for

 

 

example, queue 2 and threshold 1 (02-01).

 

 

The CoS input queue threshold map shows the CoS value in the top row

 

 

and the corresponding queue ID and threshold ID in the second row; for

 

 

example, queue 2 and threshold 2 (2-2).

Step 6

 

 

copy running-config startup-config

(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

 

 

 

To return to the default CoS input queue threshold map or the default DSCP input queue threshold map, use the no mls qos srr-queue input cos-mapor the no mls qos srr-queue input dscp-mapglobal configuration command. To return to the default WTD threshold percentages, use the no mls qos srr-queue input threshold queue-idglobal configuration command.
