Configuring QoS to Prioritize VoIP Traffic

This task explains how to configure the switch at the edge of the QoS domain to prioritize the VoIP traffic
over all other traffic:
Monitoring and Maintaining Auto-QoS
Command Purpose
Step 1 debug auto qos Enables debugging for auto-QoS. When debugging is enabled, the switch
displays the QoS configuration that is automatically generated when auto-QoS
is enabled.
Step 2 configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
Step 3 cdp enable Enable CDP globally. By default, it is enabled.
Step 4 interface interface-id Specifies the switch port connected to the Cisco IP phone, and enters interface
configuration mode.
Step 5 auto qos voip cisco-phone Enables auto-QoS on the port, and specifies that the port is connected to a Cisco
IP phone.
The QoS labels of incoming packets are trusted only when the Cisco IP phone
is detected.
Step 6 exit Returns to global configuration mode.
Step 7 Repeat Steps 4 to 6 for as many ports as are connected to the Cisco IP phone.
Step 8 interface interface-id Specifies the switch port identified as connected to a trusted switch or router,
and enters interface configuration mode. See Figure 39-1.
Step 9 auto qos voip trust Enables auto-QoS on the port, and specifies that the port is connected to a
trusted router or switch.
Step 10 end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Command Purpose
show auto qos [interface [interface-id]] Displays the QoS commands entered on the interfaces on which auto-QoS
is enabled.
show mls qos Displays global QoS configuration information.
show mls qos interface [interface-id] [buffers |
queueing]
Displays QoS information at the port level.
show mls qos maps [cos-dscp | cos-input-q |
cos-output-q | dscp-cos | dscp-input-q |
dscp-mutation | dscp-output-q | ip-prec-dscp |
policed-dscp]
Displays QoS mapping information. During classification, QoS uses the
mapping tables to represent the priority of the traffic and to derive a
corresponding CoS or DSCP value from the received CoS, DSCP, or IP
precedence value.
show mls qos input-queue Displays QoS settings for the ingress queues.
show running-config Displays the current operating configuration, including defined macros.
