Quality of Service (QoS): Managing Bandwidth More Effectively
Using QoS Types To Configure QoS for Outbound Traffic
Assigning an 802.1p Priority to IPv4 Packets on the Basis of the ToS Precedence Bits
If a device or application upstream of the switch sets the precedence bits in the ToS byte of IPv4 packets, you can use this feature to apply that setting for prioritizing packets for outbound port queues. If the outbound packets are in a tagged VLAN, this priority is carried as an 802.1p value to the adjacent downstream devices.
Syntax: qos
Causes the switch to automatically assign an 802.1p priority to all IPv4 packets by computing each packet’s 802.1p priority from the precedence bits the packet carries. This priority determines the packet’s queue in the outbound port to which it is sent. If the packet leaves the switch on a tagged port, it carries the 802.1p priority with it to the next downstream device. (ToS IP Precedence Default: Disabled)
no qos
Disables all ToS type operation, including prioritization using the precedence bits.
show qos
When
With this option, prioritization of outbound packets relies on the IP- Precedence bit setting that IP packets carry with them from upstream devices and applications. To configure and verify this option:
