QoS configuration question

cmosentine

Hi all:  We have a simple WAN consisting of our main office and two brand offices connected via point-to-point T1s.  We have 2811's in each location.

Here is my problem.  I have an application (servers in our main office)  which is a bandwidth hog, but which I must garrantee bandwidth.  The application makes heavy use of MS SQL.  My first attempt at creating a QoS policy was to use the QoS wizard to create the policy and to add a new class for the application based on the source/destination IP address.  I gave this class 40% bandwith and an LLQ.  This where configured on all serial interfaces.  Code snipets are attached below.

The problem is that the default class is still taking the majority of bandwidth during times of 100% bandwidth usage.  I need traffic to and from the application server to have precidence over all other traffic so that it behaves as if no other traffic is present.  That is what I thought "priority" did???

Thanks for teh help, Chris.

Hi,

As per my knowledge LLQ is queuing method. It’s a combination of Priority queuing and CBWFQ.

LLQ = 1 PQ + CBWFQ

Here you can get bandwidth guarantee, but there are some limitations, not all.(You cant allocate full bandwidth of link to all classes).

Cisco recommends that, In LLQ

Priority = 33 % , Other CBWFQ = 42 % (That means total 75% is maximum limit, which can be used for guarantee traffic).Other 25 % is for class default (other traffic).

I will suggest you to go for CBWFQ its better, In that also you can use 75 %. Allocate the bandwidth to your Next Gen applications till 70 % (make 2 class and allocate like 35 % for each class). Allocate in percent , it will easy, Then configure the remaining bandwidth for class default.

It will work...

I have two interfaces, serial 0/0/0 and serial  0/1/0.  That is why I have the percentages at 40 percent each.

Hi,

      Make 2 different Policy map -- CBFWQ . Don't use LLQ.Since in LLQ the the priority queue is by default policed. So its better you can configure two CBWFQ and apply on two different interface. Match your application Next gen and allocate the bandwidth 50%. Then at the time of congestion it will get min 50 % of link bandwidth and in normal period it can utilize available bandwidth.

Do rate helpful post...
