QoS on switch

dan_track · ‎07-19-2006

Hi

I'm installing a set of new switches. Currently we have a voice vlan in our network. My question is, are there any QoS options on the switches, if so how can I use them?

Siwtches: HP/Cisco CGESM Blade modules

CISCO IOS 12.2(25)SED

Thanks for your help.

Dan

Hi dan!

CGESM Blade modules support QoS...

Well you can use AutoQoS and Standard QoS

Following link will take to configuration guide... It opens slowly so keep your patience...:)

Hi,

I agree with Dan regarding the Auto QoS implementation. I would be enough for your enviroment if your traffic is not that heavy and it is a great feature.

I talked to a friend of my which is a Cisco Network Design engineer and he told me that Auto QoS needs to be implemented on a clean configuration. Basically you need to erase the configuration of the switch, enable QoS typing mls qos and create each port as a trunk port depending the end device (switch, IP Phone, etc). Otherwise you might find issues with it.

Let me know if it helps.
