Configuration Exercise: Configuring QoS on Cisco IOSBased Catalyst Switches
Complete this configuration exercise to familiarize yourself with basic QoS configuration on Cisco IOSbased Catalyst switches as discussed in this chapter.
Required Resources
The resources and equipment required to complete this exercise are as follows (the last two items are optional):
*
Catalyst 3550
*
Terminal server or workstation connected directly to the console port of the Catalyst 3550 or out-of-band access to the Catalyst 3550
*
Cisco IP Phones infrastructure supporting voice calls (this resource verifies the configuration and is not mandatory)
*
Traffic generator (this resource verifies the configuration and is not mandatory)
Exercise Objective
The purpose of this exercise is to configure a Cisco IOSbased Catalyst switch for the following QoS features:
*
Classification
*
Marking
*
Policing
*
Congestion management
*
Congestion avoidance
The exercise exposes topics such as VLANs and spanning tree found in others chapters of this book. Nevertheless, the main purpose of this exercise is to demonstrate a QoS configuration. In this configuration exercise, your goal is to configure a Catalyst 3550 for the following QoS features:
*
Trust ingress DSCP values for interfaces FastEthernet0/1 through 0/10 when a Cisco IP Phone is attached
*
Reclassify frames on interface FastEthernet0/11 for a CoS value of 4
*
Mark ingress TCP Port 30000 frames on interface FastEthernet0/12 with a DSCP value of16
*
Apply strict-priority queuing for VoIP traffic
*
Configure high-priority queues to have a 2-to-1 (2:1) priority over low-priority queues

Command List
In this configuration exercise, you will use the commands listed in Table 10-7, which are in alphabetical order so that you can easily locate the information you need. Refer to this list if you need configuration command assistance during the configuration exercise. The table includes only the specific parameters used in the example and not all the available options for the command
mls qos

mls qos trust device cisco-phone
Interface configuration command for trusting when a Cisco Phone is learned via CDP on the respective interface; works in conjunction with the mls qos trust dscp and mls qos trust cos commands
mls qos trust dscp
Interface configuration command for trusting DSCP values for ingress frames
no shutdown
Configures an interface in the Administrative UP state
policy-map policy_map_name
Enters the policy-map configuration submode
priority-queue out
Configures queue 4 on the Catalyst 3550 family of switches as a priority queue
service-policy input | output policy-map-name
Maps a policy map to an interface for ingress or egress traffic
set ip dscp dscp_value

wrr-queue bandwidth weight1 weight2 weight3 weight4
For weight1 weight2 weight3 weight4, enter the ratio that determines the frequency in which the WRR scheduler dequeues packets; separate each value with a space (the range is 1 to 65536)
wrr-queue cos-map queue-id cos1 ... cos8
Configures CoS value to egress queue mapping
Task 1: Globally Enable QoS
Step1 Connect the Catalyst switch to a terminal server or directly to the workstation's serial port for in-band connectivity.
Step2 Globally enable QoS features on the switch.
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#mls qos
Step3 Verify that QoS is globally enabled.
Switch(config)#do show mls qos
QoS is enabled
NOTE
The Cisco IOS do command is a recent addition to Cisco IOS to allow execution of privileged mode commands within configuration mode. This command saves the time and annoyance of exiting out and re-entering configuration mode. do is only found in the most recent Cisco IOS version, so it may not be supported in your version. If not, exit configuration mode and type the command (minus the keyword do) in privileged mode.
Recall that for the Catalyst 4000 and 4500 families of switches running Cisco IOS, qos commands are not prefixed with the keyword mls.
Task 2: Configure the Switch to Trust DSCP on Interfaces FastEthernet0/1 Through 0/10 If a Cisco IP Phone Is Attached
Step1 Enter the range command to configure multiple interfaces simultaneously.
Switch(config)#interface range FastEthernet 0/1 -10
Step2 Specify an access VLAN for IP Phones (voice VLANs are not used in this exercise).
Switch(config-if-range)#switchport access vlan 500
Step3 Configure the switch to trust DSCP for incoming frames only if Cisco IP Phones are attached to the interface.
Switch(config-if-range)#mls qos trust dscp
Switch(config-if-range)#mls qos trust device cisco-phone
Step4 Configure the interfaces for spanning-tree PortFast.
Switch(config-if-range)#spanning-tree portfast
%Warning: portfast should only be enabled on ports connected to a single
host. Connecting hubs, concentrators, switches, bridges, etc... to this
interface when portfast is enabled, can cause temporary bridging loops.
Use with CAUTION
%Portfast will be configured in 10 interfaces due to the range command
but will only have effect when the interfaces are in a non-trunking mode.
Step5 Enable the interfaces.
Switch(config-if-range)#no shutdown
Step6 Verify the QoS configuration.
Switch#show mls qos interface FastEthernet 0/1
FastEthernet0/1
trust state: not trusted
trust mode: trust dscp
COS override: dis
default COS: 0

trust device: cisco-phone
Task 3: Configure the Switch to Classify All Incoming Frames on Interface FastEthernet 0/11 with a CoS Value of 4 for Untagged Frames
Step1 Enter the interface configuration mode for FastEthernet0/11.
Switch(config)#interface FastEthernet 0/11
Step2 Configure the interface to classify all ingress frames with a CoS value of 4.
Switch(config-if)#mls qos cos 4
Step3 Verify the QoS configuration.
Switch#(config-if)#do show mls qos interface FastEthernet 0/11

Task 4: Configure a Policy Map, Class Map, and the Interface Such That All Ingress TCP Port 30000 Packets on FastEthernet0/11 Have Their DSCP Set to 16
Step1 Configure an access list to match packets on TCP port 30000.
Switch(config)#access-list 100 permit tcp any any eq 30000
Step2 Configure a traffic profile using a class map.
Switch(config)#class-map TCP-PORT-30k
Switch(config-cmap)#match access-group 100
Switch(config-cmap)#exit
Step3 Configure a policy map to apply the class map in Step 2 to the class action of setting the DSCP to 16.
Switch(config)#policy-map BCMSN
Switch(config-pmap)#class TCP-PORT-30k
Switch(config-pmap-c)#set ip dscp 16
Switch(config-pmap-c)#exit
Switch(config-pmap)#exit
Step4 Apply the policy-map ingress on interface FastEthernet0/11.
Switch(config)#interface FastEthernet 0/11
Switch(config-if)#service-policy input BCMSN
Switch(config-if)#exit
Step5 Verify the policy-map configuration.
Switch#show policy-map interface FastEthernet 0/11

Step2 Configure queue 4 as a strict-priority queue.
Switch(config-if)#priority-queue out
Task 7: Configure WRR Weights Such That Queue 3 Receives Twice as Much Service as Any Other Single Queue
Step1 Enter the range command to configure multiple interfaces simultaneously.
Switch(config)#interface range FastEthernet 0/1 -24
Step2 Configure queue 3 with twice the service level as that of any other queue.
Switch(config-if)#wrr-queue bandwidth 20 20 40 20
