Service-policy on gigabit interface not working

[ttherkildsen]

Hi there!

I have an 6500 IOS switch where i am using a policy for Voip trafic and i works for serial interface but not for my Gigabit interface

!

class-map match-all VOICE-CONTROL

match ip dscp cs3

class-map match-all VOICE

match ip dscp ef

!

!

policy-map WAN

class VOICE

priority percent 33

class VOICE-CONTROL

bandwidth percent 2

class class-default

fair-queue

can somone explain why this does not work on an giagbit interface ??

Hi,

The catalyst 6500 does not support WFQ - weighted fair queuing. This feature is only supported in the 6k on wan ports (flex wan and osm modules), which is why it works on your serial interface. QoS on the 6500's are on done on the PFC in hardware. The queue architecture and qos queuing features - WRR and WRED are implemented with fixed configurations on the asics. There are several qos features that are configurable, even though they are not supported - fair-queue being one of them. You have the options of implementing WRR along with priority queuing and as a queuing method, but not fair-queue.

For output scheduling, please refer to the following document for supported features:

HTH,

Thanks

Hi,

I think a bit more info is required. Can you provide the output of:

sh policy-map int gx/y

sh run int gx/y

Do you trust dscp on incoming ports with "mls qos trust dscp"

Hi Again

Yes i trust DSCP on incoming int, ( it works on serial int,)

here is the out put for sh policy map and int. config . i have also put in the serial so you can see that it works on serial

sh run int gigabitEthernet 7/45

Thanks for posting the config.

What I find strange is that your service-policy does not appear in the output of the sh run int command, yet when you do sh poli int g7/45 you get the output.

I take it you have configured the port as no switchport. I have noticed on 6500s that sometimes the ports accept an ip address even though they may not have been defined as routed ports. And what is more annoying the command does not appear in the sh run output.

I have applied similar commands onto a test port and it appears on mine..

Also to clarify another point. Are you saying that it does not work because the service-policy does not appear on the sh run int output?

Hi Again ,,

Sorry my mistake it is in the config , i was cut- past from an old config,

the interface is a routed interface, it is used the same way as serial interface 3/1/0 byt our line supply Ethernet L2 Wan link.

i am saying that there is no hit in the sh polycy - map not even in the default class.

as i understand untill now it seems like i have to buy OSM GE wan module to make this work , but they are wery expencive $$$$$$$
