Chapter 27 Configuring QoS
Configuring Standard QoS
This example shows how to map DSCP values 10 and 11 to egress queue 1 and to threshold 2:
Switch(config)# mls qos srr-queue output dscp-map queue 1 threshold 2 10 11
Configuring SRR Shaped Weights on Egress Queues
You can specify how much of the available bandwidth is allocated to each queue. The ratio of the weights
is the ratio of frequency in which the SRR scheduler sends packets from each queue.
You can configure the egress queues for shaped or shared weights, or both. Use shaping to smooth bursty
traffic or to provide a smoother output over time. For information about, see the “SRR Shaping and
Sharing” section on page 27-12. For information about shared weights, see the “Configuring SRR
Shared Weights on Egress Queues” section on page 27-62.
Note The egress queue default settings are suitable for most situations. You should change them only when
you have a thorough understanding of the egress queues and if these settings do not meet your QoS
solution.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to assign the shaped weights and to enable
bandwidth shaping on the four egress queues mapped to a port. This procedure is optional.
To return to the default setting, use the no srr-queue bandwidth shape interface configuration
command.
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface interface-id Specify the interface of the outbound traffic, and enter interface
configuration mode.
Step 3
srr-queue bandwidth shape weight1
weight2 weight3 weight4
Assign SRR weights to the egress queues.
By default, weight1 is set to 25; weight2, weight3, and weight4 are set to 0,
and these queues are in shared mode.
For weight1 weight2 weight3 weight4, enter the weights to determine the
percentage of the port that is shaped. The inverse ratio (1/weight)
determines the shaping bandwidth for this queue. Separate each value
with a space. The range is 0 to 65535.
If you configure a weight of 0, the corresponding queue operates in shared
mode. The weight specified with the srr-queue bandwidth shape
command is ignored, and the weights specified with the srr-queue
bandwidth share interface configuration command for a queue come into
effect. When configuring queues in the same queue-set for both shaping
and sharing, make sure that you configure the lowest number queue for
shaping.
The shaped mode overrides the shared mode.
Step 4
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 5
