Chapter 24 Configuring QoS

Configuring Quality of Service (QoS)

On all Cisco ASR 901 routers, you can attach per-port and per-port, per-VLAN policy-maps across all ports on the router until QoS classification resource limitations are reached. Any policy attachment or change that causes this limit to be exceeded fails with a TCAM resources exceeded error message.

Sample QoS Configuration

The following configuration demonstrates how to apply QoS given the hardware limitations. The Cisco ASR 901 processes traffic between interfaces as follows:

For layer 2 traffic passing between the GigabitEthernet 0/2 interface and the GigabitEthernet 0/0 interface, the output queue is determined by the QoS Group assigned in the in-qos policy map.

For layer 3 traffic passing between GigabitEthernet 0/2 interface and the GigabitEthernet 0/0 interface, the output queue is determined based on the CoS value assigned in the in-qos policy map. (the CoS value is mapped 1:1 to the QoS group value.)

For traffic passing between other interfaces, the output queue is determined based on the CS fields (top three bits) of the IP DSCP bits; these bits are copied to the CoS bits, which are mapped 1:1 to the QoS group value.
