3.23Communication Failure Caused by Settings of Filtering/QoS

3.23.1Checking Filtering/QoS Setting Information

As a cause for communication failure on the network using this system, certain packets may have been discarded by filtering or packets may have been discarded through bandwidth monitoring, discarding control, or shaper of the QoS control.

If packets are discarded within this system by filtering or QoS control, the procedure for identifying the discarding location is described below.

(1) Checking packet discarding by filtering

1.Log in to the system.

2.Check the filtering conditions of the access list applied to the interface, the number of packets meeting the filtering conditions, and the number of packets discarded according to implicit discarding filter entry by using the show access-filtercommand.

3.Compare the filtering conditions identified in step 2 and the contents of the packet that cannot be exchanged, and see if the packets have been discarded. If the packets that cannot be exchanged do not meet all of the filtering conditions applied, the packets in this example, may have been implicitly discarded.

4.Review to see if setting conditions in filtering configuration are correct.

(2) Checking packet discarding through bandwidth monitoring of QoS control

1.Log in to the system.

2.Check the flow detecting condition and operation designation of bandwidth monitoring applied to the interface and the number of packets meeting the flow detecting conditions by executing the show qos-flowcommand.

3.Compare the flow detecting conditions identified in step 2 and the contents of the packet that cannot be exchanged, and see if the packets have been discarded. The packets which violate maximum bandwidth control are discarded, and "matched packets (max-rate over)" statistical information is incremented. If this statistical information is incremented, packets may be discarded through bandwidth monitoring applied to the interface.

4.Review to see if setting conditions in QoS control configuration are correct and bandwidth monitoring settings in system configuration are proper.

(3) Checking packet discarding through discarding control and shaper of QoS control

IP8800/S6700, IP8800/S6600, and IP8800/S6300

1.Log in to the system.

2.Check the "discard_pkt"statistical information of the port sending/receiving queue for the input interface and output interface used for communication by using the show qos queueing command with "interface" parameter specified.

3.Check the "discard_pkt"statistical information of the distribution sending/receiving queue for accommodating the input interface or output interface used for communication by using the show qos queueing command with "distribution" parameter specified.

4.If the statistical information identified in steps 2 and 3 is incremented, packets are discarded through discarding control of QoS control.

5.Review to see if discard control and shaper have been set up appropriately for the system operation.
