Configuring a High Priority Transmit Queue

To configure transmit queue 3 at a higher priority, perform this task:
This example shows how to configure transmit queue 3 to high priority:
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1
Switch(config-if-tx-queue)# tx-queue 3
Switch(config-if-tx-queue)# priority high
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch#
Configuring DSCP Maps
The following sections describes how to configure the DSCP maps. It contains this configuration
information:
Configuring the CoS-to-DSCP Map, page 37-53
Configuring the Policed-DSCP Map, page 37-54
Configuring the DSCP-to-CoS Map, page 37-55
All the maps are globally defined and are applied to all ports.

Configuring the CoS-to-DSCP Map

You use the CoS-to-DSCP map to map CoS values in incoming packets to a DSCP value that QoS uses
internally to represent the priority of the traffic.
Table 37-3 shows the default CoS-to-DSCP map.
If these values are not appropriate for your network, you need to modify them.
Command Purpose
Step 1 Switch(config)# interface {fastethernet |
gigabitethernet} slot/interface Selects the interface to configure.
Step 2 Switch(config-if)# tx-queue 3 Selects transmit queue 3 to configure.
Step 3 Switch(config-if)# [no] priority high Sets the transmit queue to high priority.
Use the no keyword to clear the transmit queue priority.
Step 4 Switch(config-if)# end Exits configuration mode.
Step 5 Switch# show qos interface Verifies the configuration.
