QoS Problem ( nt getting same DSCP marking at diff.. vpls customer sites

bhartispbase · ‎12-30-2007

Hi we are having 3 locations A , B & C

we are providing l2 vpls service to customer .

customer is connected to our mpls cloud via EoSDH on my mpls switch on locations A , B & C.

customer is marking his traffic with DSCP bit XX from Location A when customer checking the traffic

at location B via packet sniffer ethereal they are not getting the same DSCP Tagging .

can anyone help me to find out the possible cause of this .

As far as i know in VPLS services there is limitation of provide multi-QoS.

But here in this case i m only trusting DSCP on the Lastmile port as well as on the trunks connected from my switches to my PEs .

so customer tagging should reach from location A to Location B .

Here we go:

CPE-A------CPE-A-SW--------SP-SW-A----PE-A======MPLS CLOUD=====PE-B------SP-SW-B-------CPE-B-SW-------CPE-B

here :CPE-A = customer router

CPE-A-SW = 4500

SP-SW-A = 4500

PE-A = 7600

PE-B = 7600

SP-SW-B = 3500

CPE-B-SW = 4500

CPE-B = customer router

In your switch use show mls qos int x/x stat" on the exit interface to see if packets were correctly marked

I m getting blew output on the trunk interface connected to my PE on both the switches.

SP-SW-A#sh qos interface GigabitEthernet4/3

Hi,

Are the CPE-A-SW and CPE-B-SW ports set to trusted? The default setting on all LAN switches is not to trust and thus any port with default settings will result in CoS=DSCP=0.
