Hi

Assuming you are using autoqos throughout the rest of your network, the comands you've suggested should be fine.

As you're probably aware, the CCM/Unity boxes won't be marking CoS (as there is no trunk on the port) so you need to trust DSCP.

You could use a service policy, but it's generally not worth the additional effort for these devices which you can consider trusted...

Thanks ,another doubt..

If a execute only mls qos trust dscp ?without auto qos voip trust ...Is correct?

I have my cisco press QoS 642-642 i have see this command in many scenarios ..e.g configuring qos between two trust boundaries,

Thanks once again,

Hi Carlos

auto qos... commands are just fancy macros really.

As you have suggested, the important command in this case is 'mls qos trust dscp'.

However - applying the auto qos command also generates any global configuration (i.e. queue mappings, cos-dscp/dscp-cos maps etc) and any scheduling settings that are required. So if you have a server switch on which you haven't configured any qos yet, it will set up settings consistent with your edge switches where you have applied auto qos.

If you have other ports set up for auto qos on this switch you could just apply 'mls qos trust dscp'... however it's safer (and looks nicer/easier to read) if you apply the auto qos then the trust dscp commands.
