Allocating Buffer Space Between The Ingress Queues - Cisco IE-3000-8TC Software Configuration Manual

Configuring Standard QoS
Command
Step 5
show mls qos maps
Step 6 copy running-config startup-config
To return to the default CoS input queue threshold map or the default DSCP input queue threshold map,
use the no mls qos srr-queue input cos-map or the no mls qos srr-queue input dscp-map global
configuration command. To return to the default WTD threshold percentages, use the no mls qos
srr-queue input threshold queue-id global configuration command.
This example shows how to map DSCP values 0 to 6 to ingress queue 1 and to threshold 1 with a drop
threshold of 50 percent. It maps DSCP values 20 to 26 to ingress queue 1 and to threshold 2 with a drop
threshold of 70 percent:
Switch(config)# mls qos srr-queue input dscp-map queue 1 threshold 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Switch(config)# mls qos srr-queue input dscp-map queue 1 threshold 2 20 21 22 23 24 25 26
Switch(config)# mls qos srr-queue input threshold 1 50 70
In this example, the DSCP values (0 to 6) are assigned the WTD threshold of 50 percent and will be
dropped sooner than the DSCP values (20 to 26) assigned to the WTD threshold of 70 percent.

Allocating Buffer Space Between the Ingress Queues

You define the ratio (allocate the amount of space) with which to divide the ingress buffers between the
two queues. The buffer and the bandwidth allocation control how much data can be buffered before
packets are dropped.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to allocate the buffers between the ingress
queues. This procedure is optional.

Purpose
Verify your entries.
The DSCP input queue threshold map appears as a matrix. The d1 column
specifies the most-significant digit of the DSCP number; the d2 row
specifies the least-significant digit in the DSCP number. The intersection
of the d1 and the d2 values provides the queue ID and threshold ID; for
example, queue 2 and threshold 1 (02-01).
The CoS input queue threshold map shows the CoS value in the top row
and the corresponding queue ID and threshold ID in the second row; for
example, queue 2 and threshold 2 (2-2).
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Allocate the buffers between the ingress queues
By default 90 percent of the buffers are allocated to queue 1, and 10
percent of the buffers are allocated to queue 2.
For percentage1 percentage2, the range is 0 to 100. Separate each value
with a space.
You should allocate the buffers so that the queues can handle any
incoming bursty traffic.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
