Configuring Qos - Cisco ME 3400G-2CS - Ethernet Access Switch Software Configuration Manual

Configuring QoS

•
This example shows how to configure bandwidth and queue limit so that out-class1, out-class2, and
out-class3 get a minimum of 50, 20, and 10 percent of the traffic bandwidth, and the remaining traffic
(class-default) gets the remaining 20 percent. The corresponding queue-size is set to 48, 32, and 16
(256-byte) packets, respectively:
Switch(config)# policy-map out-policy
Switch(config-pmap)# class outclass1
Switch(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 50
Switch(config-pmap-c)# queue-limit 48
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# class outclass2
Switch(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 20
Switch(config-pmap-c)# queue-limit 32
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# class outclass3
Switch(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 10
Switch(config-pmap-c)# queue-limit 16
Switch(config-pmap-c)# exit
Switch(config-pmap)# exit
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet 0/1
Switch(config-if)# service-policy output out-policy
Switch(config-if)# exit
Configuring QoS
Before configuring QoS, you must have a thorough understanding of these factors:
•
•
•
•
These sections describe how to classify, police, and mark incoming traffic, and schedule and queue
outgoing traffic. Depending on your network configuration, you must perform one or more of these
tasks.

A WTD qualifier in the queue-limit command must be the same as at least one match qualifier in
the associated class map.
The types of applications used and the traffic patterns on your network.
Traffic characteristics and needs of your network. Is the traffic bursty? Do you need to reserve
bandwidth for voice and video streams?
Bandwidth requirements and speed of the network.
Location of congestion points in the network.
