RE: qos 3560

Following on, the best way is to 'trust' on all uplinks between devices
and filter at the edge. So you have a customer who shouldn't be sending
tagged traffic, set the port to not trusted (should be the default
state) and any customer using QoS should have "mls qos trust dscp" on
the demark port.

If you don't have a trusted core, then all it takes is a simple switch
in the path traffic takes and you'll find yourself scratching your head
as to why the DSCP tags are disappearing all of a sudden!



indeed, i do see another dscp value in the counters. (besides mine).
i tried with dscp mutation and re-mapping, but it did't work.
so..start NOT trusting the edge/customers ports.

Look at "show mls qos map" to see the defaults that may be rewriting
your information depending on trust (or non-trust) mechanisms you have
configured.

If you trust CoS, a frame received with cos5 and dscp46 will get
rewritten to dscp 40 with default maps...

"show mls qos interface (intf)" is also good to see status.

hello

indeed, a fellow nanoger gave me this hint.

1. i had to enable mls qos globally in "network" switches
2. set the mls qos trust dscp on the uplinks (ingress port)


thanks

ps thanks to andrey.gordon too :)

You should make sure that any links that go between devices have
trust
set.  In your case if your doing DSCP,
then make sure each link that goes between devices which must carry
tagged packets have trust dscp set.

hello

i am playing with qos on some devices
- cisco 3560
- cisco 7609
and i have some things that i don't seem to understand.

1. in 3560, i enable mls qos, on the ingress port applyed policy
map,
classify the packets with acl, mark, all good. on the egress ports i
use
srr-queue with shape/share, everything is fine, it is working.

se/12.2_20_se/configuration/guide/swqos.html#wp1028614



2. reset to defaults the 3560
in 7606 i pick up a vlan, and apply a policy-map and set dscp 40 on
egress of that vlan
3560 in uplinked in 7609
in 3560 i can see the "marked" packets, and i have matches on the
dscp
set earlier (sh mls qos int xx stat).
the problem is: when i apply the srr-queue in 3560 on egress
(towards
the test port), it does not work.
if i enable mls qos on 3560, i cannot match anymore the dscp 40 from
the
7609

is it normal? do i have to apply the qos stuff (point1) on all
switches
i want qos on? i mean, i cannot set dscp in one "core" device and
use
that in the whole network ?


thanks
