Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Command Reference

access-list rate-limit

To configure an access list for use with committed access rate (CAR) policies, use the access-listrate-limit command in global configuration mode. To remove the access list from the configuration, use the no form of this command.

access-list rate-limit acl-index {precedence | mac-address | exp | mask mask}

no access-list rate-limit acl-index {precedence | mac-address | exp | mask mask}

Syntax Description


`acl-index`	Access list number. To classify packets by IP precedence, use any number from 1 to 99 MAC address, use any number from 100 to 199 Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) experimental field, use any number from 200 to 299
`precedence`	IP precedence. Valid values are numbers from 0 to 7.
`mac-address`	MAC address.
`exp`	MPLS experimental field. Valid values are numbers from 0 to 7.
mask `mask`	Mask. Use this option if you want to assign multiple IP precedences or MPLS experimental field values to the same rate-limit access list.

Command Default

No CAR access lists are configured.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
11.1CC	This command was introduced.
12.1(5)T	This command now includes an access list based on the MPLS experimental field.
12.2(2)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)T.
12.2(4)T	This command was implemented on the Cisco MGX 8850 switch and the MGX 8950 switch with a Cisco MGX RPM-PR card.
12.2(4)T2	This command was implemented on the Cisco 7500 series.
12.2(33)SRA	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX	This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to classify packets by the specified IP precedence, MAC address, or MPLS experimental field values for a particular CAR access list. You can then apply CAR policies, using the rate-limit command, to individual rate-limit access lists. When packets in an access list are classified in this manner, the packets with different IP precedences, MAC addresses, or MPLS experimental field values are treated differently by the CAR process.

You can specify only one command for each rate-limit access list. If you enter this command multiple times using the same access list number, the new command overwrites the previous command.

Use the mask keyword to assign multiple IP precedences or MPLS experimental field values to the same rate-limit list. To ascertain the mask value, perform the following steps.

Decide which precedences you want to assign to this rate-limit access list.
Convert the precedences or MPLS experimental field values into 8-bit numbers with each bit corresponding to one value. For example, an MPLS experimental field value of 0 corresponds to 00000001; 1 corresponds to 00000010; 6 corresponds to 01000000; and 7 corresponds to 10000000.
Add the 8-bit numbers for the selected MPLS experimental field values. For example, the mask for MPLS experimental field values 1 and 6 is 01000010.
The access-listrate-limit command expects hexadecimal format. Convert the binary mask into the corresponding hexadecimal number. For example, 01000010 becomes 42 and is used in the command. Any packets that have an MPLS experimental field value of 1 or 6 will match this access list.

A mask of FF matches any precedence, and 00 does not match any precedence.

Examples

In the following example, MPLS experimental fields with the value of 7 are assigned to the rate-limit access list 200:


Router(config)# access-list rate-limit 200 7

You can then use the rate-limit access list in a rate-limit command so that the rate limit is applied only to packets matching the rate-limit access list.


Router(config)# interface atm4/0.1 mpls
Router(config-if)# rate-limit input access-group rate-limit 200 8000 8000 8000
conform-action set-mpls-exp-transmit 4 exceed-action set-mpls-exp-transmit 0

To begin discovering and collecting data for configuring the AutoQoS for the Enterprise feature, use the autodiscoveryqos command in interface configuration mode. To stop discovering and collecting data, use the no form of this command.

auto discovery qos [trust]

no auto discovery qos

Syntax Description


trust	(Optional) Indicates that the differentiated services code point (DSCP) markings of a packet are trust (that is, relied on) for classification of the voice, video, and data traffic. If the optional trust keyword is not specified, the voice, video, and data traffic is classified using network-based application recognition (NBAR), and the packets are marked with the appropriate DSCP value.

Command Default

No data collection is performed.

Command Modes

Interface configuration

Command History


Release	Modification
12.3(7)T	This command was introduced.
12.3(11)T	The trust mode was modified to classify packets by DSCP value rather than by protocol type.

Usage Guidelines

The autodiscoveryqos command initiates the Auto-Discovery (data collection) phase of the AutoQoS for the Enterprise feature. This command invokes NBAR protocol discovery to collect data and analyze the traffic at the egress direction of the interface.

The noautodiscoveryqos command terminates the Auto-Discovery phase and removes any data collection reports generated.

The trust keyword is used for the trusted model based on the specified DSCP marking. For more information, see the “Trusted Boundary” section of the AutoQoS for the Enterprise feature module, Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)T.

Examples

The following is a sample configuration showing the Auto-Discovery (data collection) phase of the AutoQoS for the Enterprise feature enabled on a serial2/1/1 subinterface.


Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# interface serial2/1.1
Router(config-if)# frame-relay interface-dlci 58

show auto qos	Displays the interface configurations, policy maps, and class maps created by AutoQoS on a specific interface or all interfaces.

auto qos

To install the quality-of-service (QoS) class maps and policy maps created by the AutoQoS for the Enterprise feature, use the autoqos command in interface configuration mode. To remove the QoS policies, use the no form of this command.

auto qos

no auto qos

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or keywords.

Command Default

No QoS policies are installed.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.3(7)T	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The class maps and policy maps are created from the templates that are automatically generated by the AutoQoS for the Enterprise feature. These templates (and the resulting class maps and policy maps) are generated on the basis of the data collected during the Auto-Discovery phase of the AutoQoS for the Enterprise feature. For more information about the Auto-Discovery phase, see the “Configuration Phases” section of the AutoQoS for the Enterprise feature module, Cisco IOS Release 12.3(7)T.

The noautoqos command removes any AutoQoS-generated class maps and policy maps installed on the interface.

Theautoqos command is not supported on gigabit interfaces.

Examples

The following is a sample configuration showing the AutoQoS for the Enterprise feature enabled on a serial2/1/1 subinterface. In this configuration, the AutoQoS class maps and policy maps will be installed on the serial2/1 interface.


Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# interface serial2/1
Router(config-if)# frame-relay interface-dlci 58
Router(config-if)# auto qos
Router(config-if)# end

Related Commands


Command	Description
service policy	Attaches a policy map to an input interface or VC, or an output interface or VC, to be used as the service policy for that interface or VC.
show auto qos	Displays the interface configurations, policy maps, and class maps created by AutoQoS on a specific interface or all interfaces.

auto qos voip

To configure the AutoQoS--VoIP feature on an interface, use the autoqosvoip command in interface configuration mode or Frame Relay DLCI configuration mode. To remove the AutoQoS--VoIP feature from an interface, use the no form of this command.

auto qos voip [trust] [fr-atm]

no auto qos voip [trust] [fr-atm]

Syntax Description


trust	(Optional) Indicates that the differentiated services code point (DSCP) markings of a packet are trusted (relied on) for classification of the voice traffic. If the optional trust keyword is not specified, the voice traffic is classified using network-based application recognition (NBAR), and the packets are marked with the appropriate DSCP value.
fr-atm	(Optional) Enables the AutoQoS--VoIP feature for Frame-Relay-to-ATM links. This option is available on the Frame Relay data-link connection identifiers (DLCIs) for Frame-Relay-to-ATM interworking only.

Command Default

Default mode is disabled.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)
Frame Relay DLCI configuration (for use with Frame Relay DLCIs) (config-fr-dlci)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(15)T	This command was introduced.
12.2SX	This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

To enable the AutoQoS--VoIP feature for Frame-Relay-to-ATM interworking, the fr-atm keyword must be configured explicitly. However, the fr-atm keyword affects low-speed DLCIs only . It does not affect high-speed DLCIs.

Note

DLCIs with link speeds lower than or equal to 768 kbps are considered low-speed DLCIs; DLCIs with link speeds higher than 768 kbps are considered high-speed DLCIs.

Depending on whether the trust keyword has been configured for this command, the AutoQoS--VoIP feature automatically creates one of the following two policy maps:

“AutoQoS-Policy-Trust” (created if the trust keyword is configured)
“AutoQoS-Policy-UnTrust” (created if the trust keyword is not configured)

Both of these policy maps are designed to handle the Voice over IP (VoIP) traffic on an interface or a permanent virtual circuit (PVC) and can be modified to suit the quality of service (QoS) requirements of the network. To modify these policy maps, use the appropriate Cisco IOS command.

These policy maps should not be attached to an interface or PVC by using the service-policy command. If the policy maps are attached in this manner, the AutoQoS--VoIP feature (that is, the policy maps, class maps, and access control lists [ACLs]) will not be removed properly when thenoautoqosvoip command is configured.

For low-speed Frame Relay DLCIs that are interconnected with ATM PVCs in the same network, the fr-atm keyword must be explicitly configured in the autoqosvoip command to configure the AutoQoS--VoIP feature properly. That is, the command must be configured as autoqosvoipfr-atm .

For low-speed Frame Relay DLCIs that are configured with Frame-Relay-to-ATM, Multilink PPP (MLP) over Frame Relay (MLPoFR) is configured automatically. The subinterface must have an IP address. When MLPoFR is configured, this IP address is removed and put on the MLP bundle. The AutoQoS--VoIP feature must also be configured on the ATM side by using the autoqosvoip command.

The autoqosvoip command is not supported on subinterfaces or gigabit interfaces.

The autoqosvoip command is available for Frame Relay DLCIs.

Disabling AutoQoS--VoIP

The noautoqosvoip command disables the AutoQoS--VoIP feature and removes the configurations associated with the feature.

When the noautoqosvoip command is used, the no forms of the individual commands originally generated by the AutoQoS--VoIP feature are configured. With the use of individual no forms of the commands, the system defaults are reinstated. The no forms of the commands will be applied just as if the user had entered the commands individually. As the configuration reinstating the default setting is applied, any messages resulting from the processing of the commands are displayed.

Note

If you delete a subinterface or PVC (either ATM or Frame Relay PVCs) without configuring the noautoqosvoip command, the AutoQoS--VoIP feature will not be removed properly.

Examples

The following example shows the AutoQoS--VoIP feature configured on serial point-to-point subinterface 4/1.2. In this example, both the trust and fr-atm keywords are configured.


Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# interface serial4/1.2 point-to-point
Router(config-if)# bandwidth 100
Router(config-if)# ip address 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0
Router(config-if)# frame-relay interface-dlci 102
Router(config-fr-dlci)# auto qos voip trust fr-atm
Router(config-fr-dlci)# end
Router(config-if#
 
exit

show auto qos	Displays the configurations created by the AutoQoS--VoIP feature on a specific interface or all interfaces.

auto qos voip (6500)

To configure AutoQoS on a voice over IP (VoIP) port interface, use the autoqosvoip command in interface configuration mode. To remove AutoQos from the configuration, use the no form of this command.

auto qos voip {cisco-phone | cisco-softphone | trust}

no auto qos voip {cisco-phone | cisco-softphone | trust}

Syntax Description


cisco-phone	Enables the quality of service (QoS) ingress macro for the Cisco IP Phone.
cisco-softphone	Enables the QoS ingress macro for the Cisco IP SoftPhone.
trust	Specifies AutoQoS for ports trusting differentiated services code point (DSCP) and class of service (CoS) traffic markings.

Command Default

AutoQos trusts DSCP and CoS traffic markings.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(33)SXH	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

The autoqosvoip command is not supported on gigabit interfaces.

The automation of QoS (AutoQoS) allows you to specify the type of QoS parameters desired on a particular port. For example, entering the autoqosvoipcisco-softphone command enables the QoS ingress macro for the Cisco IP SoftPhone.

The Smartports feature provides a set of tools for configuring all switch settings related to a specific application with a single command. For example, entering the autoqosvoipcisco-phone command configures all the settings necessary to connect an IP phone to the switch.

You can enter theshowautoqos command to display the configured AutoQoS macros.

AutoQoS and Smartports are supported on the following modules:

WS-X6548-RJ45
WS-X6548-RJ21
WS-X6148-GE_TX
WS-X6548-GE-TX-CR
WS-X6148-RJ45V
WS-X6148-RJ21V
WS-X6348-RJ45
WS-X6348-RJ21
WS-X6248-TEL

Note

Thenoautoqosvoip interface configuration command does not disable QoS globally or delete the received CoS-to-internal-DSCP maps created by AutoQoS.

The autoqosvoipcisco-phone and the autoqosvoipcisco-softphone commands allow you to enable the inbound QoS configuration macros for AutoQoS on an interface. In some cases, the interface-specific autoqosvoip commands also generate configuration commands that are applied globally.

You must configure the interface with the switchport command if you enter the autoqosvoipcisco-phone command. You cannot configure the interface with the switchport command if you enter the autoqosvoipcisco-softphone command.

If you configure an interface with the switchport command, AutoQoS configures the interface to trust CoS. If you do not configure the interface with the switchport command, AutoQoS configures the interface to trust DSCP.

AutoQoS uses a nondefault CoS-to-DSCP map. For this reason, you must configure port trust on a per-port-ASIC basis.

When you enter the autoqosvoipcisco-phone command, the following behavior occurs:

QoS is enabled if it is disabled.
The port is changed to port-based QoS.
The appropriate CoS map is set.
All ports are changed to port-based mode (if applicable).
A trust-CoS QoS policy is created and applied for the ports that need a trust-CoS QoS policy (COIL2 and COIL1).
A trusted boundary is enabled on the port.
The CoS value for a trust boundary is set to zero.
The port trust is set to trust-cos.
Only 10/100 ports and 10/100/1000 ports are supported.
A warning message is displayed if the CDP version is not version 2.

When you enter the autoqosvoipcisco-softphone command, the following behavior occurs:

The cisco-softphone macro is a superset of the cisco-phone macro and configures all features that are required for a Cisco IP Phone to work properly on the Catalyst 6500 series switch.
The global settings for AutoQoS policy maps, class maps, and access lists are created to classify VoIP packets and to put them in the priority queue or another low-latency queue. The interface settings are created depending on the type of interface and the link speed.
Two rate limiters are associated with the interface on which the cisco-softphone port-based autoqos macro is executed. The two rate limiters ensure that all inbound traffic on a cisco-softphone port have the following characteristics:
- The rate of DCSP 46 is at or less than that of the expected softphone rate.
- The rate of DSCP 26 is at or less than the expected signaling rate.
- All other traffic is re-marked to DSCP 0 (default traffic).
DSCP 46 is policed at the rate of 320 kbps with a burst of 2 Kb. DSCP 26 is policed at 32 kbps with a burst of 8 Kb.
The port is set to untrusted for all port types. The policed-dscp-map is set to ensure that DSCP 46 is marked down to DSCP 0 and DSCP 26 is marked down to DSCP 0. The default QoS IP ACL re-marks all other traffic to DSCP 0.

When you enter the autoqosvoipsoft-phone command, the following behavior occurs:

Enables QoS if QoS is disabled.
Changes the port to port-based QoS.
Sets the appropriate police-dscp-map.
Sets the appropriate CoS-to-DSCP map.
Changes all ports to port-based mode (if applicable).
Creates a trust-dscp QoS policy for the ports that need it (COIL2 and COIL1).
Applies the trust-dscp QoS policy to the port (COIL2 and COIL1).
Disables a trusted boundary on the port.
Changes trust to untrusted.
Allows 10/100 ports and 10/100/1000 ports only.
Applies two rate limiters, one for DSCP 46 and one for DSCP 26 inbound traffic, and trusts only inbound DSCP 46 and DSCP 26 traffic.
Marks violations of either rate limiter results in traffic down to DSCP 0.
Re-marks all other (non-DSCP 26 and 46) inbound traffic to DSCP 0.

When you enter the autoqosvoiptrust command, the following applies:

The DSCP and the CoS markings are trusted for classification of the voice traffic.
Enables QoS if QoS is disabled.
Changes the port to port-based QoS.
Changes all ports to port-based mode (if applicable).
Creates a trust-dscp and a trust-cos QoS policy for the ports that need it (COIL2 and COIL1).
Applies the trust-dscp and a trust-cos QoS policy to the port (COIL2 and COIL1).
Disables the trusted boundary on the port.
Sets port trust to trust-cos.
All ports are supported.
Bases queueing for all ports that allow dscp-to-q mapping on DSCP. If not, queueing is based on CoS.

Examples

The following example shows how to enable the QoS ingress macro for the Cisco IP Phone:


Router(config-if)# auto qos voip cisco-phone

Configuring a Policy Map

Use the bandwidth command when you configure a policy map for a class defined by the class-map command. The bandwidth command specifies the bandwidth for traffic in that class. Class-based weighted fair queueing (CBWFQ) derives the weight for packets belonging to the class from the bandwidth allocated to the class. CBWFQ then uses the weight to ensure that the queue for the class is serviced fairly.

Configuring Strict Priority with Bandwidth

You can configure only one class with strict priority. Other classes cannot have priority or bandwidth configuration. To configure minimum bandwidth for another class, use thebandwidthremainingpercent command.

Specifying Bandwidth as a Percentage for All Supported Platforms Except the Cisco 10000 Series Routers

Besides specifying the amount of bandwidth in kilobits per second (kbps), you can specify bandwidth as a percentage of either the available bandwidth or the total bandwidth. During periods of congestion, the classes are serviced in proportion to their configured bandwidth percentages. The bandwidth percentage is based on the interface bandwidth. Available bandwidth is equal to the interface bandwidth minus the sum of all bandwidths reserved by the Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) feature, the IP RTP Priority feature, and the low latency queueing (LLQ) feature.

Note

It is important to remember that when the bandwidth remaining percent command is configured, hard bandwidth guarantees may not be provided and only relative bandwidths are assured. That is, class bandwidths are always proportional to the specified percentages of the interface bandwidth. When the link bandwidth is fixed, class bandwidth guarantees are in proportion to the configured percentages. If the link bandwidth is unknown or variable, the router cannot compute class bandwidth guarantees in kbps.

Specifying Bandwidth as a Percentage for the Cisco 10000 Series Routers

Besides specifying the amount of bandwidth in kilobits per second (kbps), you can specify bandwidth as a percentage of either the available bandwidth or the total bandwidth. During periods of congestion, the classes are serviced in proportion to their configured bandwidth percentages. The minimum bandwidth percentage is based on the nearest parent shape rate.

Note

It is important to remember that when the bandwidth remaining percent command is configured, hard bandwidth guarantees may not be provided and only relative bandwidths are assured. That is, class bandwidths are always proportional to the specified percentages of the interface bandwidth. When the link bandwidth is fixed, class bandwidth guarantees are in proportion to the configured percentages. If the link bandwidth is unknown or variable, the router cannot compute class bandwidth guarantees in kbps.

The router converts the specified bandwidth to the nearest multiple of 1/255 (ESR-PRE1) or 1/65535 (ESR-PRE2) of the interface speed. Use the show policy-map interface command to display the actual bandwidth.

Restrictions for All Supported Platforms

The following restrictions apply to the bandwidth command:

The amount of bandwidth configured should be large enough to also accommodate Layer 2 overhead.
A policy map can have all the class bandwidths specified in either kbps or percentage, but not both, in the same class. However, the unit for the priority command in the priority class can be different from the bandwidth unit of the nonpriority class.
When the bandwidth percent command is configured, and a policy map containing class policy configurations is attached to the interface to stipulate the service policy for that interface, available bandwidth is assessed. If a policy map cannot be attached to a particular interface because of insufficient interface bandwidth, the policy is removed from all interfaces to which it was successfully attached. This restriction does not apply to the bandwidth remaining percent command.

Note

With CSCsy73939, if the bandwidth percent command results in a bandwidth value that is lower than the valid range then the policy map specifying this value cannot be attached to an interface, and the router displays the following error message: "service-policy output parent Configured Percent results in out of range kbps. Allowed range is min-value–max-value . The present CIR value is n ."

For more information on bandwidth allocation, see the “Congestion Management Overview” module in the Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide.

Note that when the policy map containing class policy configurations is attached to the interface to stipulate the service policy for that interface, available bandwidth is assessed. If a policy map cannot be attached to a particular interface because of insufficient interface bandwidth, then the policy is removed from all interfaces to which it was successfully attached.

Modular QoS CLI Queue Limits

The bandwidth command can be used with MQC to specify the bandwidth for a particular class. When used with MQC, the bandwidth command uses a default queue limit for the class. This queue limit can be modified using the queue-limit command, thereby overriding the default set by the bandwidth command.

Note

To meet the minimum bandwidth guarantees required by interfaces, modify the default queue limit of high-speed interfaces by using the queue-limit command.

Cisco 10000 Series Router

The Cisco 10000 series routers supports the bandwidth command on outbound interfaces only. They do not support this command on inbound interfaces.

On the PRE2, you specify a bandwidth value and a unit for the bandwidth value. Valid values for the bandwidth are from 1 to 2488320000. The units are bps, kbps, mbps, and gbps. The default unit is kbps. For example, the following commands configure a bandwidth of 10000 bps and 10000 kbps on the PRE2:


bandwidth 10000 bps
bandwidth 10000

On the PRE3, youspecify only a bandwidth value. Because the unit is always kbps, the PRE3 does not support the unit argument. Valid values are from 1 to 2000000. For example, the following command configures a bandwidth of 128,000 kbps on the PRE3:


bandwidth 128000

The PRE3 accepts the PRE2 bandwidth command only if the command is used without the unit argument. The PRE3 rejects the PRE2 bandwidth command if the specified bandwidth is outside the valid PRE3 bandwidth value range (1 to 2000000).

Besides specifying the amount of bandwidth in kilobits per second (kbps), you can specify bandwidth as a percentage of either the available bandwidth or the total bandwidth. During periods of congestion, the classes are serviced in proportion to their configured bandwidth percentages. The bandwidth percentage is based on the interface bandwidth. However, in a hierarchical policy the minimum bandwidth percentage is based on the nearest parent shape rate.

Note

When the bandwidth remaining percent command is configured, hard bandwidth guarantees may not be provided and only relative bandwidths are assured. Class bandwidths are always proportional to the specified percentages of the interface bandwidth. When the link bandwidth is fixed, class bandwidth guarantees are in proportion to the configured percentages. If the link bandwidth is unknown or variable, the router cannot compute class bandwidth guarantees in kbps.

The router converts the specified bandwidth to the nearest multiple of 1/255 (PRE1) or 1/65535 (PRE2, PRE3) of the interface speed. Use the show policy-map interface command to display the actual bandwidth.

Overhead Accounting for ATM (Cisco 10000 Series Router)

When configuring ATM overhead accounting, you must specify the BRAS-DSLAM, DSLAM-CPE, and subscriber line encapsulation types. The router supports the following subscriber line encapsulation types:

mux-1483routed
mux-dot1q-rbe
snap-pppoa
mux-rbe
snap-1483routed
snap-dot1q-rbe
mux-pppoa
snap-rbe

The router calculates the offset size unless you specify the user-defined offset option.

For hierarchical policies, configure ATM overhead accounting in the following ways:

Enabled on parent--If you enable ATM overhead accounting on a parent policy, you are not required to enable accounting on the child policy.
Enabled on child and parent--If you enable ATM overhead accounting on a child policy, then you must enable ATM overhead accounting on the parent policy.

The encapsulation types must match for the child and parent policies.

The user-defined offset values must match for the child and parent policies.

Examples

In the following example, the policy map named VLAN guarantees 30 percent of the bandwidth to the class named Customer1 and 60 percent of the bandwidth to the class named Customer2. If you apply the VLAN policy map to a 1-Mbps link, 300 kbps (30 percent of 1 Mbps) is guaranteed to class Customer1 and 600 kbps (60 percent of 1 Mbps) is guaranteed to class Customer2, with 100 kbps remaining for the class-default class. If the class-default class does not need additional bandwidth, the unused 100 kbps is available for use by class Customer1 and class Customer2. If both classes need the bandwidth, they share it in proportion to the configured rates. In this example, the sharing ratio is 30:60 or 1:2:


router(config)# policy-map VLAN
router(config-pmap)# class Customer1
router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 30
router(config-pmap-c)# exit
router(config-pmap)# class Customer2
router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 60

Examples

The following example shows how to create a policy map with two classes, shows how bandwidth is guaranteed when only CBWFQ is configured, and shows how to attach the policy to serial interface 3/2/1:


Router(config)# policy-map policy1
Router(config-pmap)# class class1
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 50
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# class class2
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth percent 25
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# exit
Router(config)# interface serial3/2/1
Router(config-if)# service output policy1
Router(config-if)# end

The following output from the show policy-map command shows the configuration for the policy map named policy1:


Router# show policy-map policy1
 
Policy Map policy1
 Class class1
  Weighted Fair Queuing
   Bandwidth 50 (%) Max Threshold 64 (packets)
 Class class2
  Weighted Fair Queuing
   Bandwidth 25 (%) Max Threshold 64 (packets)

The output from the show policy-map interface command shows that 50 percent of the interface bandwidth is guaranteed for the class named class1, and 25 percent is guaranteed for the class named class2. The output displays the amount of bandwidth as both a percentage and a number of kbps.


Router# show policy-map interface serial3/2

In this example, serial interface 3/2 has a total bandwidth of 1544 kbps. During periods of congestion, 50 percent (or 772 kbps) of the bandwidth is guaranteed to the class named class1, and 25 percent (or 386 kbps) of the link bandwidth is guaranteed to the class named class2.

Examples

In the following example, the interface has a total bandwidth of 1544 kbps. During periods of congestion, 50 percent (or 772 kbps) of the bandwidth is guaranteed to the class named class1, and 25 percent (or 386 kbps) of the link bandwidth is guaranteed to the class named class2.

The following sample output from the show policy-map command shows the configuration of a policy map named p1:


Router# show policy-map p1
Policy Map p1
 Class voice
  Weighted Fair Queuing
   Strict Priority
   Bandwidth 500 (kbps) Burst 12500 (Bytes)
 Class class1
  Weighted Fair Queuing
   Bandwidth remaining 50 (%) Max Threshold 64 (packets)
 Class class2
  Weighted Fair Queuing
   Bandwidth remaining 25 (%) Max Threshold 64 (packets)

The following output from the show policy-map interface command on serial interface 3/2 shows that 500 kbps of bandwidth is guaranteed for the class named voice1. The classes named class1 and class2 receive 50 percent and 25 percent of the remaining bandwidth, respectively. Any unallocated bandwidth is divided proportionally among class1, class2, and any best-effort traffic classes.

Note

In this sample output (unlike many of the others earlier in this section) the bandwidth is displayed only as a percentage for class 1 and class 2. Bandwidth expressed as a number of kbps is not displayed because the percent keyword was used with the bandwidth remaining command. The bandwidth remaining percent command allows you to allocate bandwidth as a relative percentage of the total bandwidth available on the interface.

Examples

When a parent policy has ATM overhead accounting enabled, you are not required to enable ATM overhead accounting on a child traffic class that does not contain the bandwidth or shape command. In the following configuration example, ATM overhead accounting is enabled for bandwidth on the gaming and class-default class of the child policy map named subscriber_classes and on the class-default class of the parent policy map named subscriber_line. The voip and video classes do not have ATM overhead accounting explicitly enabled; these priority queues have overhead accounting implicitly enabled because ATM overhead accounting is enabled on the parent policy. Notice that the features in the parent and child policies use the same encapsulation type.


Router(config)# policy-map subscriber_classes
Router(config-pmap)# class voip
Router(config-pmap-c)# priority level 1
Router(config-pmap-c)# police 8000
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# class video
Router(config-pmap-c)# priority level 2
Router(config-pmap-c)# police 20
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# class gaming
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth remaining percent 80 account aal5 snap-rbe-dot1q
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# class class-default
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth remaining percent 20 account aal5 snap-rbe-dot1q
Router(config-pmap-c)# policy-map subscriber_line
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# class class-default
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth remaining ratio 10 account aal5 snap-rbe-dot1q
Router(config-pmap-c)# shape average 512 account aal5 snap-rbe-dot1q
Router(config-pmap-c)# service policy subscriber_classes

In the following example, the router uses 20 overhead bytes and ATM cell tax in calculating ATM overhead. The child and parent policies contain the required matching offset values. The parent policy is attached to virtual template 1.


Router(config)# policy-map child
Router(config-pmap)# class class1
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth 500 account user-defined 20 atm
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# class class2

Router(config-pmap)# exit
Router(config)# exit

To remove this explicitly specified reference bandwidth, use the no form of this command.

bandwidth qos-reference bandwidth-amount

no bandwidth qos-reference bandwidth-amount

Syntax Description


`bandwidth-amount`	Amount of bandwidth in kilobits per second (kb/s). Valid values are 1 to 10000000.

Command Default

This command is disabled. Reference bandwidth for a logical interface is derived from the main interface or the main interface QoS policy.

Command Modes

Interface configuration (config-if)
Subinterface configuration (config-subif)

Command History


Release	Modification
12.2(33)XNE	This command was introduced.
15.1(3)T	Support for logical interfaces is expanded to include the main interface, subinterface, and Frame Relay.
Cisco IOS XE Release 3.17S	This command was modified. The support for logical interfaces was extended to the main interface and the subinterface. This command was implemented on Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers.

Usage Guidelines

The bandwidthqos-reference command is used only as reference for calculating rates of QoS percent configurations on a logical interface. This command does not actually allocate a specified amount of bandwidth for a logical interface.

Note

In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)XNE, the bandwidthqos-reference command is supported only on a tunnel logical interface. In Cisco IOS Release 15.1(3)T, support is expanded to include main interface, subinterface, and Frame Relay as well as tunnel logical interfaces.

Compatibility with the shape (percent) and the police (percent) Commands

The bandwidthqos-reference command is compatible with and related to the shape (percent) and police (percent) commands. The shape (percent) command allows you to configure average-rate or peak-rate traffic shaping on the basis of a percentage of bandwidth available on an interface. The police (percent) command allows you to configure traffic policing on the basis of a percentage of bandwidth available on an interface.

The bandwidthqos-reference command interacts with theshape (percent) and police (percent) commands in the following ways:

If the bandwidthqos-reference command is used to specify the bandwidth, theshape (percent) command and the police (percent) commands will use this specified amount to calculate the respective bandwidth percentages.
If the bandwidthqos-reference command is not used to specify the bandwidth, the shape (percent) command and the police (percent) commands will use the amount of bandwidth available on the interface to calculate the respective bandwidth percentages.

Compatibility with bandwidth (interface) Command

The bandwidth (interface) command allows you to set the inherited and received bandwidth values for an interface.

If both the bandwidth (interface) and bandwidthqos-reference commands are enabled on any interface, the value specified by the bandwidthqos-reference command is used as the reference for calculating rates for QoS percent configurations on that particular physical or logical interface. The value specified by the bandwidth (interface) command is disregarded.

In the sample configuration shown below, the value for the bandwidthqos-reference command is entered as 8000 kb/s, and the value for the bandwidth (interface) command is entered as 900 kb/s. The value for the shapeaveragepercent command is set to 50. The effect is seen in the output for the targetshaperate command, which is set to 4000000 bits per second (50 percent of 8000 kb/s):


Router(config)# interface e0/1
Router(config-if)# bandwidth qos-reference 8000

Examples

The following example shows how to configure thebandwidthqos-reference command to allocate 2000 kb/s of bandwidth as a reference rate for tunnel interface 1:


Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# interface tunnel1
Router#(config-if)# bandwidth qos-reference 2000

The following example shows how to configure thebandwidthqos-reference command to use 700 kb/s of bandwidth as a reference rate for the main interface e0/1:


Router(config)# interface e0/1
Router(config-if)# bandwidth qos-ref 700
Router(config-if)# policy-map test
Router(config-pmap)# class class-default
Router(config-pmap-c)# shape average percent 50

Note

For the Cisco 7300 series router and 7600 series router, valid values are from -48 to +48.

Note

For the Cisco 10000 series router, valid values are from -63 to +63.

Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers

ratio

Relative weight of this subinterface or class queue with respect to other subinterfaces or class queues. Valid values are from 1 to 1000. At the subinterface level and class-queue level, the default is 1.

Cisco 10000 Series Router

For most platforms, the default bandwidth ratio is 1.

When you use default bandwidth-remaining ratios at the subinterface level, the Cisco 10000 series router distinguishes between interface types. At the subinterface level, the default bandwidth-remaining ratio is 1 for VLAN subinterfaces and Frame Relay Data Link Connection Identifiers (DLCI). For ATM subinterfaces, the router computes the default bandwidth-remaining ratio based on the subinterface speed.

When you use default bandwidth-remaining ratios at the class level, the Cisco 10000 series router makes no distinction between interface types. At the class level, the default bandwidth-remaining ratio is 1.

Usage Guidelines

Cisco 10000 Series Router

The scheduler uses the ratio specified in the bandwidthremainingratio command to determine the amount of excess bandwidth (unused by priority traffic) to allocate to a class-level queue or a subinterface-level queue during periods of congestion. The scheduler allocates the unused bandwidth relative to other queues or subinterfaces.

The bandwidthremainingratio command cannot coexist with another bandwidth command in different traffic classes of the same policy map. For example, the following configuration is not valid and causes an error message to display:


policy-map Prec1
 class precedence_0
  bandwidth remaining ratio 10
 class precedence_2
  bandwidth 1000

For the PRE2, the bandwidthremainingratio command can coexist with another bandwidth command in the same class of a policy map. On the PRE3, the bandwidthremainingratio command cannot coexist with another bandwidth command in the same class. For example, the following configuration is not valid on the PRE3 and causes an error message to display:


policy-map Prec1
 class precedence_0
  bandwidth 1000
  bandwidth remaining ratio 10

In a hierarchical policy map in which the parent policy has only the class-default class defined with a child queuing policy applied, the router accepts only the bandwidthremainingratio form of the bandwidth command in the class-default class.

The bandwidthremainingratio command cannot coexist with the priority command in the same class. For example, the following configuration is not valid and causes an error message to display:


policy-map Prec1
 class precedence_1
  priority
  police percent 30
  bandwidth remaining ratio 10

All of the queues for which the bandwidthremainingratio command is not specified receive the platform-specified minimum bandwidth-remaining ratio. The router determines the minimum committed information rate (CIR) based on the configuration.

ATM Overhead Accounting (Optional)

The bandwidthremainingratio command can also be used to enable ATM overhead accounting. To enable ATM overhead accounting, use the account keyword and the subsequent keywords and arguments as documented in the Syntax Description table.

Cisco 7200 Series Routers

Thebandwidthremainingratio command is not supported on the Cisco 7200 series routers. If you have upgraded from Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRD to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRE, you may see parser errors when you run this command. You can use the bandwidthremainingpercent command in place of the bandwidthremainingratio command on Cisco 7200 series routers to achieve the same functionality.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure a bandwidth-remaining ratio on an ATM subinterface. In the example, the router guarantees a peak cell rate of 50 Mbps for the variable bit rate nonreal-time (VBR-nrt) PVC 0/200. During periods of congestion, the subinterface receives a share of excess bandwidth (unused by priority traffic) based on the bandwidth-remaining ratio of 10, relative to the other subinterfaces configured on the physical interface.

The following example shows how to configure bandwidth remaining ratios for individual class queues. Some of the classes configured have bandwidth guarantees and a bandwidth-remaining ratio explicitly specified. When congestion occurs within a subinterface level, the class queues receive excess bandwidth (unused by priority traffic) based on their class-level bandwidth-remaining ratios: 20, 30, 120, and 100, respectively, for the precedence_0, precedence_1, precedence_2, and precedence_5 classes. Normally, the precedence_3 class (without a defined ratio) would receive bandwidth based on the bandwidth-remaining ratio of the class-default class defined in the Child policy. However, in the example, the Child policy does not define a class-default bandwidth remaining ratio. Therefore, the router uses a ratio of 1 to allocate excess bandwidth to precedence_3 traffic.

bump

To configure the bump ing rules for a virtual circuit (VC) class that can be assigned to a VC bundle, use the bump command in VC-class configuration mode. To remove the explicit bumping rules for the VCs assigned to this class and return to the default condition of implicit bumping, use the nobumpexplicit command or the bumpimplicit command. To specify that the VC bundle members do not accept any bumped traffic, use the no form of this command.

To configure the bumping rules for a specific VC or permanent virtual circuit (PVC) member of a bundle, use the bump command in bundle-vc or SVC-bundle-member configuration mode. To remove the explicit bumping rules for the VC or PVC bundle member and return to the default condition of implicit bumping, use the bumpimplicit command. To specify that the VC or PVC bundle member does not accept any bumped traffic, use the nobumptraffic command.

bump {explicit precedence-level | implicit | traffic}

no bump {explicit precedence-level | implicit | traffic}

Syntax Description


explicit `precedence-level`	Specifies the precedence level to which traffic on a VC or PVC will be bumped when the VC or PVC goes down. Valid values for the `precedence-level` argument are numbers from 0 to 7.
implicit	Applies the implicit bumping rule, which is the default, to a single VC or PVC bundle member or to all VCs in the bundle (VC-class mode). The implicit bumping rule stipulates that bumped traffic is to be carried by a VC or PVC with a lower precedence level.
traffic	Specifies that the VC or PVC accepts bumped traffic (the default condition). The no form stipulates that the VC or PVC does not accept any bumped traffic.

Command Default

Implicit bumping

Permit bumping (VCs accept bumped traffic)

Command Modes

VC-class configuration (for a VC class)
Bundle-vc configuration (for an ATM VC bundle member)
SVC-bundle-member configuration (for an SVC bundle member)

12.2SX	This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

Use the bump command in bundle-vc configuration mode (for an ATM VC bundle member) or SVC-bundle-member configuration mode (for an SVC bundle member) to configure bumping rules for a discrete VC or PVC bundle member. Use the bump command in VC-class configuration mode to configure a VC class that can be assigned to a bundle member.

The effects of different bumping configuration approaches are as follows:

Implicit bumping--If you configure implicit bumping, bumped traffic is sent to the VC or PVC configured to handle the next lower precedence level. When the original VC or PVC that bumped the traffic comes back up, the traffic that it is configured to carry is restored to it. If no other positive forms of the bump command are configured, the bumpimplicit command takes effect.
Explicit bumping--If you configure a VC or PVC with the bumpexplici t command, you can specify the precedence level to which traffic will be bumped when that VC or PVC goes down, and the traffic will be directed to a VC or PVC mapped with that precedence level. If the VC or PVC that picks up and carries the traffic goes down, the traffic is subject to the bumping rules for that VC or PVC. You can specify only one precedence level for bumping.
Permit bumping--The VC or PVC accepts bumped traffic by default. If the VC or PVC has been previously configured to reject bumped traffic, you must use the bumptraffic command to return the VC or PVC to its default condition.
Reject bumping--To configure a discrete VC or PVC to reject bumped traffic when the traffic is directed to it, use the nobumptraffic command.

Note

When no alternative VC or PVC can be found to handle bumped traffic, the bundle is declared down. To avoid this occurrence, configure explicitly the bundle member VC or PVC that has the lowest precedence level.

To use this command in VC-class configuration mode, you must enter the vc-classatm global configuration command before you enter this command.

To use this command to configure an individual bundle member in bundle-VC configuration mode, first issue the bundle command to enter bundle configuration mode for the bundle to which you want to add or modify the VC member to be configured. Then use the pvc-bundle command to specify the VC to be created or modified and enter bundle-vc configuration mode.

This command has no effect if the VC class that contains the command is attached to a standalone VC; that is, if the VC is not a bundle member. In this case, the attributes are ignored by the VC.

VCs in a VC bundle are subject to the following configuration inheritance guidelines (listed in order of next-highest precedence):

VC configuration in bundle-vc mode
Bundle configuration in bundle mode (with the effect of assigned VC-class configuration)
Subinterface configuration in subinterface mode

Examples

The following example configures the class called “five” to define parameters applicable to a VC in a bundle. If the VC goes down, traffic will be directed (bumped explicitly) to a VC mapped with precedence level 7:


vc-class atm five
 ubr 5000
 precedence 5
 bump explicit 7

The following example configures the class called “premium-class” to define parameters applicable to a VC in a bundle. Unless overridden with a bundle-vc bump configuration, the VC that uses this class will not allow other traffic to be bumped onto it:


vc-class atm premium-class
 no bump traffic
 bump explicit 7

12.3(4)T	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.3(4)T on the following platforms: Cisco 2600 series, Cisco 3600 series, and Cisco 3700 series routers.

Usage Guidelines

Before you use the class (EtherSwitch) command, use the policy-map global configuration command to identify the policy map and to enter policy-map configuration mode. After you specify a policy map, you can configure a policy for new classes or modify a policy for any existing classes in that policy map. You attach the policy map to an interface by using the service-policy interface configuration command; however, you cannot attach one that uses an ACL classification to the egress direction.

The class name that you specify in the policy map ties the characteristics for that class to the class map and its match criteria as configured by using the class-map global configuration command.

The class (EtherSwitch) command performs the same function as theclass-map global configuration command. Use the class (EtherSwitch) command when a new classification, which is not shared with any other ports, is needed. Use the class-map command when the map is shared among many ports.

Note

In a policy map, the class named “class-default” is not supported. The Ethernet switch network module does not filter traffic on the basis of the policy map defined by the classclass-default policy-map configuration command.

After entering the class (EtherSwitch) command, you enter policy-map class configuration mode. When you are in this mode, these configuration commands are available:

default --Sets a command to its default.
exit --Exits policy-map class configuration mode and returns to policy-map configuration mode.
no --Returns a command to its default setting.
police --Defines a policer for the classified traffic. The policer specifies the bandwidth limitations and the action to take when the limits are exceeded. For more information, see the police command.

To return to policy-map configuration mode, use the exit command. To return to privileged EXEC mode, use the end command.

Note

For more information about configuring IP ACLs, refer to the “Configuring IP Services” chapter in the Cisco IOS IP Application Services Configuration Guide.

Examples

The following example shows how to create a policy map named “policy1.” When attached to the ingress port, it matches all the incoming traffic defined in class1 and polices the traffic at an average rate of 1 Mbps and bursts at 131072 bytes. Traffic exceeding the profile is dropped.


Router(config)# policy-map policy1
Router(config-pmap)# class class1
Router(config-pmap-c)# police 1000000 131072 exceed-action drop
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit

You can verify your settings by entering the showpolicy-map privileged EXEC command.

Usage Guidelines

Policy Map Configuration Mode

Within a policy map, the class (policy-map) command can be used to specify the name of the class whose policy you want to create or change. First, the policy map must be identified.

To identify the policy map (and enter the required policy-map configuration mode), use the policy-map command before you use the class (policy-map) command. After you specify a policy map, you can configure policy for new classes or modify the policy for any existing classes in that policy map.

Class Characteristics

The class name that you specify in the policy map ties the characteristics for that class--that is, its policy--to the class map and its match criteria, as configured using the class-map command.

When you configure policy for a class and specify its bandwidth and attach the policy map to an interface, class-based weighted fair queueing (CBWFQ) determines if the bandwidth requirement of the class can be satisfied. If so, CBWFQ allocates a queue for the bandwidth requirement.

When a class is removed, available bandwidth for the interface is incremented by the amount previously allocated to the class.

The maximum number of classes that you can configure for a router--and, therefore, within a policy map--is 64.

Predefined Default Class

The class-default keyword is used to specify the predefined default class called class-default. The class-default class is the class to which traffic is directed if that traffic does not match any of the match criteria in the configured class maps.

Tail Drop or WRED

You can define a class policy to use either tail drop by using the queue-limit command or Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED) by using the random-detect command. When using either tail drop or WRED, note the following points:

The queue-limit and random-detect commands cannot be used in the same class policy, but they can be used in two class policies in the same policy map.
You can configure the bandwidth command when either the queue-limit command or the random-detect command is configured in a class policy. The bandwidth command specifies the amount of bandwidth allocated for the class.
For the predefined default class, you can configure the fair-queue (class-default) command. The fair-queue command specifies the number of dynamic queues for the default class. The fair-queue command can be used in the same class policy as either the queue-limit command or the random-detect command. It cannot be used with the bandwidth command.

Fragments

A default traffic class is marked as a fragment within a policy map class statement using the fragment keyword. Multiple fragments can then be classified collectively in a separate policy map that is created using the service-fragment keyword. When fragments are used, default traffic classes marked as fragments have QoS applied separately from the non-default traffic classes.

When using fragments, note the following guidelines:

Only default traffic classes can be marked as fragments.
Thefragment fragment-class-name option within a default class statement marks that default class as a fragment.
Theservice-fragment f ragment-class-name option when defining a class in a policy map is used to specify a class of traffic within the Modular QoS CLI that contains all fragments sharing the same fragment-class-name .
Fragments can only be used within the same physical interface. Policy maps with fragments sharing the same fragment-class-name on different interfaces cannot be classified collectively using a class with the service-fragment fragment-class-name option.

Cisco 10000 Series Router

The PRE2 allows you to configure 31 class queues in a policy map.

In a policy map, the PRE3 allows you to configure one priority level 1 queue, plus one priority level 2 queue, plus 12 class queues, plus one default queue.

Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers

The maximum number of classes that you can configure for a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router--and, therefore, within a policy map--is 8.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure three class policies included in the policy map called policy1. Class1 specifies policy for traffic that matches access control list 136. Class2 specifies policy for traffic on interface ethernet101. The third class is the default class to which packets that do not satisfy configured match criteria are directed:


! The following commands create class-maps class1 and class2 
! and define their match criteria:
class-map class1
 match access-group 136
class-map class2
 match input-interface ethernet101
! The following commands create the policy map, which is defined to contain policy
! specification for class1, class2, and the default class:
policy-map policy1
Router(config)# policy-map policy1
Router(config-pmap)# class class1
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth 2000
Router(config-pmap-c)# queue-limit 40
Router(config-pmap)# class class2
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth 3000
Router(config-pmap-c)# random-detect
Router(config-pmap-c)# random-detect exponential-weighting-constant 10
Router(config-pmap)# class class-default
Router(config-pmap-c)# fair-queue 16
Router(config-pmap-c)# queue-limit 20

Class1--A minimum of 2000 kbps of bandwidth is expected to be delivered to this class in the event of congestion, and the queue reserved for this class can enqueue 40 packets before tail drop is enacted to handle additional packets.
Class2--A minimum of 3000 kbps of bandwidth is expected to be delivered to this class in the event of congestion, and a weight factor of 10 is used to calculate the average queue size. For congestion avoidance, WRED packet drop is used, not tail drop.
The default class--16 dynamic queues are reserved for traffic that does not meet the match criteria of other classes whose policy is defined by the policy map called policy1, and a maximum of 20 packets per queue is enqueued before tail drop is enacted to handle additional packets.

Note

When the policy map that contains these classes is attached to the interface to stipulate the service policy for that interface, available bandwidth is assessed, taking into account all class policies and Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP), if configured.

The following example shows how to configure policy for the default class included in the policy map called policy8. The default class has these characteristics: 20 dynamic queues are available for traffic that does not meet the match criteria of other classes whose policy is defined by the policy map called policy8, and a weight factor of 14 is used to calculate the average queue size. For congestion avoidance, WRED packet drop is used, not tail drop:


Router(config)# policy-map policy8

The following example shows how to configure policy for a class called acl136 included in the policy map called policy1. Class acl136 has these characteristics: a minimum of 2000 kbps of bandwidth is expected to be delivered to this class in the event of congestion, and the queue reserved for this class can enqueue 40 packets before tail drop is enacted to handle additional packets. Note that when the policy map that contains this class is attached to the interface to stipulate the service policy for that interface, available bandwidth is assessed, taking into account all class policies and RSVP, if configured:


Router(config)# policy-map policy1
Router(config-pmap)# class acl136
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth 2000
Router(config-pmap-c)# queue-limit 40

The following example shows how to configure policy for a class called int101 included in the policy map called policy8. Class int101 has these characteristics: a minimum of 3000 kbps of bandwidth are expected to be delivered to this class in the event of congestion, and a weight factor of 10 is used to calculate the average queue size. For congestion avoidance, WRED packet drop is used, not tail drop. Note that when the policy map that contains this class is attached to the interface to stipulate the service policy for that interface, available bandwidth is assessed:


Router(config)# policy-map policy8
Router(config-pmap)# class int101
Router(config-pmap-c)# bandwidth 3000
Router(config-pmap-c)# random-detect exponential-weighting-constant 10

The following example shows how to configure policy for the class-default default class included in the policy map called policy1. The class-default default class has these characteristics: 10 hashed queues for traffic that does not meet the match criteria of other classes whose policy is defined by the policy map called policy1; and a maximum of 20 packets per queue before tail drop is enacted to handle additional enqueued packets:


Router(config)# policy-map policy1
Router(config-pmap)# class class-default
Router(config-pmap-c)# fair-queue
Router(config-pmap-c)# queue-limit 20

The following example shows how to configure policy for the class-default default class included in the policy map called policy8. The class-default default class has these characteristics: 20 hashed queues for traffic that does not meet the match criteria of other classes whose policy is defined by the policy map called policy8; and a weight factor of 14 is used to calculate the average queue size. For congestion avoidance, WRED packet drop is used, not tail drop:


Router(config)# policy-map policy8
Router(config-pmap)# class class-default
Router(config-pmap-c)# fair-queue 20
Router(config-pmap-c)# random-detect exponential-weighting-constant 14

The following example shows how to configure FPM for blaster packets. The class map contains the following match criteria: TCP port 135, 4444 or UDP port 69; and pattern 0x0030 at 3 bytes from start of IP header:

The following example shows how to create a fragment class of traffic to classify the default traffic class named BestEffort. All default traffic from the policy maps named subscriber1 and subscriber2 is part of the fragment default traffic class named BestEffort. This default traffic is then shaped collectively by creating a class called data that uses the service-fragment keyword and the shape command:

Note the following about this example:

The class-name for each fragment default traffic class is “BestEffort.”
Theclass-name of “BestEffort” is also used to define the class where theservice-fragment keyword is entered. This class applies a shaping policy to all traffic forwarded using the fragment default traffic classes named “BestEffort.”

12.2SX	This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

To use this command, you must first enter the bundle or bundlesvc command to create the bundle and enter bundle or SVC-bundle configuration mode.

Use this command to assign a previously defined set of parameters (defined in a VC class) to an ATM VC bundle. Parameters set through bundle-level commands that are contained in a VC class are applied to the bundle and its VC members.

You can add the following commands to a VC class to be used to configure a VC bundle: broadcast , encapsulation , inarp,oam-bundle , oamretry, and protocol .

Bundle-level parameters applied through commands that are configured directly on a bundle supersede bundle-level parameters applied through a VC class by the class-bundle command. Some bundle-level parameters applied through a VC class or directly to the bundle can be superseded by commands that you directly apply to individual VCs in bundle-VC configuration mode.

Examples

In the following example, a class called “class1” is created and then applied to the bundle called “bundle1”:


! The following commands create the class class1:
vc-class atm class1
 encapsulation aal5snap
 broadcast
 protocol ip inarp
 oam-bundle manage 3
 oam 4 3 10
! The following commands apply class1 to the bundle called bundle1:
bundle bundle1
 class-bundle class1

With hierarchy precedence rules taken into account, VCs belonging to the bundle called “bundle1” will be characterized by these parameters: aal5snap, encapsulation, broadcast on, use of Inverse Address Resolution Protocol (Inverse ARP) to resolve IP addresses, and Operation, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) enabled.

class-map class-map-name

no class-map class-map-name

Syntax Description

type

(Optional) Specifies the class-map type.

stack

(Optional) Enables the flexible packet matching (FPM) functionality to determine the protocol stack to examine.

When you use the load protocol command to load protocol header description files (PHDFs) on the device, a stack of protocol headers can be defined so that the filter can determine which headers are present and in what order.

access-control

(Optional) Determines the pattern to look for in the configured protocol stack.

Note

You must specify a stack class map (by using the type stack keywords) before specifying an access-control class map (by using the type access-control keywords).

port-filter

(Optional) Creates a port-filter class map that enables the TCP or UDP port policing of control plane packets. When this keyword is enabled, the command filters the traffic that is destined to specific ports on the control-plane host subinterface.

queue-threshold

(Optional) Enables queue thresholding, which limits the total number of packets for a specified protocol allowed in the control plane IP input queue. The queue-thresholding applies only to the control-plane host subinterface.

logging log-class

(Optional) Enables the logging of packet traffic on the control plane. The value for the log-class argument is the name of the log class.

match-all

(Optional) Determines how packets are evaluated when multiple match criteria exist. Matches statements under this class map based on the logical AND function. A packet must match all statements to be accepted. If you do not specify the match-all or match-any keyword, the default keyword used is match-all .

match-any

(Optional) Determines how packets are evaluated when multiple match criteria exist. Matches statements under this class map based on the logical OR function. A packet must match any of the match statements to be accepted. If you do not specify the match-any or match-all keyword, the default keyword is used match-all .

class-map-name

Name of the class for the class map. The class name is used for both the class map and to configure a policy for the class in the policy map.

Note

You can enter the value for the class-map-name argument within quotation marks. The software does not accept spaces in a class map name entered without quotation marks.

Command Default

A class map is not configured.

Use the class-map command to specify the class that you will create or modify to meet the class-map match criteria. This command enters QoS class-map configuration mode in which you can enter one or more match commands to configure the match criteria for this class. Packets that arrive at either the input interface or the output interface (determined by how the service-policy command is configured) are checked against the match criteria that are configured for a class map to determine if packets belong to that class.

When configuring a class map, you can use one or more match commands to specify the match criteria. For example, you can use the match access-group command, the match protocol command, or the match input-interface command. The match commands vary according to the Cisco software release. For more information about match criteria and match commands, see the “Modular Quality of Service Command-Line Interface (CLI) (MQC)” chapter of the Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide.

Cisco 7600 Series Routers

Apply the class-map command and commands available in QoS class-map configuration mode on a per-interface basis to define packet classification, marking, aggregating, and flow policing as part of a globally named service policy.

You can attach a service policy to an EtherChannel. Do not attach a service policy to a port that is a member of an EtherChannel.

When a device is in QoS class-map configuration mode, the following configuration commands are available:

description—Specifies the description for a class-map configuration.
exit —Exits from QoS class-map configuration mode.
match —Configures classification criteria.
no —Removes a match statement from a class map.

The following commands appear in the CLI help but are not supported on LAN interfaces or WAN interfaces on Optical Service Modules (OSMs):

destination-address mac mac-address
input-interface {interface-type interface-number | null number | vlan vlan-id}
protocol link-type
source-address mac mac-address

OSMs are not supported on Cisco 7600 series routers that are configured with a Supervisor Engine 32.

Policy Feature Card (PFC) QoS does not support the following commands:

destination-address mac mac-address
input-interface {interface-type interface-number | null number | vlan vlan-id}
protocol link-type
qos-group group-value
source-address mac mac-address

If you enter these commands, PFC QoS does not detect unsupported keywords until you attach a policy map to an interface. When you try to attach the policy map to an interface, an error message is generated. For additional information, see the Cisco 7600 Series Router Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide and Cisco IOS command references.

After configuring the class-map name and the device you can enter the match access-group and match ip dscp commands in QoS class-map configuration mode. The syntax for these commands is as follows:

match [access-group {acl-index | acl-name} | ip dscp | precedence } value ]

See the table below for a description of match command keywords.

Table 1. match command Syntax Description
Optional command	Description
access-group `acl-index` `\|` `acl-name`	(Optional) Specifies the access list index or access list names. Valid access list index values are from 1 to 2699.
access-group `acl-name`	(Optional) Specifies the named access list.
ip dscp `value1` `value2` `...` `value8`	(Optional) Specifies IP differentiated services code point (DSCP) values to match. Valid values are from 0 to 63. You can enter up to eight DSCP values separated by spaces.
ip precedence `value1` `value2` `...` `value8`	(Optional) Specifies the IP precedence values to match. Valid values are from 0 to 7. You can enter up to eight precedence values separated by spaces.

Examples

The following example shows how to specify class101 as the name of a class and define a class map for this class. The class named class101 specifies policy for the traffic that matches ACL 101.


Device(config)# class-map class101
Device(config-cmap)# match access-group 101
Device(config-cmap)# end

The following example shows how to define FPM traffic classes for slammer and UDP packets. The match criteria defined within class maps are for slammer and UDP packets with an IP length that does not exceed 404 (0x194) bytes, UDP port 1434 (0x59A), and pattern 0x4011010 at 224 bytes from the start of the IP header.


Device(config)# load protocol disk2:ip.phdf
Device(config)# load protocol disk2:udp.phdf
Device(config)# class-map type stack match-all ip-udp
Device(config-cmap)# description “match UDP over IP packets”

Device(config-cmap)# match closed-ports
Device(config-cmap)# exit
Device(config)# policy-map type port-filter pf-policy
Device(config-pmap)# class pf-class
Device(config-pmap-c)# drop
Device(config-pmap-c)# end

The following example shows how to configure a class map named ipp5 and enter a match statement for IP precedence 5:


Device(config)# class-map ipp5
Device(config-cmap)# match ip precedence 5

clear ip rsvp reservation

To remove Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) RESV-related receiver information currently in the database, use the cleariprsvpreservation command in EXEC mode.

clear ip rsvp reservation {session-ip-address sender-ip-address {tcp | udp | ip-protocol} session-dport sender-sport | *}

Syntax Description

session-ip-address

For unicast sessions, this is the address of the intended receiver; for multicast sessions, it is the IP multicast address of the session.

sender-ip-address

The IP address of the sender.

tcp | udp | ip-protocol

TCP, User Datagram Protocol (UDP), or IP protocol in the range from 0 to 65535.

session-dport

The destination port.

Note

Port numbers are specified in all cases, because the use of 16-bit ports following the IP header is not limited to UDP or TCP. If destination is zero, source must be zero, and the implication is that ports are not checked. If destination is nonzero, source must be nonzero (except for wildcard filter (wf) reservations, for which the source port is always ignored and can therefore be zero).

sender-sport

The source port.

Note

Port numbers are specified in all cases, because the use of 16-bit ports following the IP header is not limited to UDP or TCP. If destination is zero, source must be zero, and the implication is that ports are not checked. If destination is nonzero, source must be nonzero (except for wildcard filter (wf) reservations, for which the source port is always ignored and can therefore be zero).

12.2SX	This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

Usage Guidelines

Use the cleariprsvpreservation command to remove the RESV-related sender information currently in the database so that when reservation requests arrive, based on the RSVP admission policy, the relevant ones can be reestablished.

Whenever you change the clockrate or bandwidth of an interface, RSVP does not update its database to reflect the change. This is because such a change requires that RSVP reestablish reservations based on the new clockrate or bandwidth value and arbitrarily dropping some reservations while retaining others is not desired. The solution is to clear the RESV state by issuing the cleariprsvpreservation command.

The cleariprsvpreservation command clears the RESV state from the router on which you issued the command and causes the router to send a PATH TEAR message to the upstream routers thereby clearing the RESV state for that reservation on all the upstream routers.

Examples

The following example clears all the RESV-related receiver information currently in the database:


Router# clear ip rsvp reservation *

The following example clears all the RESV-related receiver information for a specified reservation currently in the database:


Router# clear ip rsvp reservation 10.2.1.1 10.1.1.2 udp 10 20

Syntax Description

session-ip-address

For unicast sessions, this is the address of the intended receiver; for multicast sessions, it is the IP multicast address of the session.

sender-ip-address

The IP address of the sender.

tcp | udp | ip-protocol

TCP, User Datagram Protocol (UDP), or IP protocol in the range from 0 to 65535.

If you do not enter an interface type, the protocol aggregate-QoS counters for all interfaces are cleared.

Note

Entering the clearmlsqos command affects the policing token bucket counters and might briefly allow traffic to be forwarded that would otherwise be policed.

Examples

This example shows how to clear the global and per-interface aggregate-QoS counters for all protocols:


Router# clear mls qos

This example shows how to clear the specific protocol aggregate-QoS counters for all interfaces:


Ro
uter# clear mls qos ip

Cisco IOS XE Release 2.2	This command was implemented on Cisco ASR 1000 series routers.

Usage Guidelines

After you enter the control-plane command, you can apply a control-plane policing (CoPP), port-filter, or queue-threshold policy to police traffic destined for the control plane. You can define aggregate CoPPs for the route processor (RP) and configure a service policy to police all traffic destined to the control plane:

From all line cards on the router (aggregate CP services)
From all interfaces on a line card (distributed CP services)

Aggregate CP services manage traffic destined for the control plane and received on the central switch engine from all line cards in the router.

Distributed CP services manage CP traffic from interfaces on a specified line card before CP packets are forwarded to the central switch engine where aggregate CP services are applied.

Note

On the Cisco 12000 series Internet router, you can combine distributed and aggregate CP services to protect the control plane from DoS attacks and provide packet QoS. The slot slot-number parameter is used only for distributed CP services configurations.

Control-plane policing includes enhanced control-plane functionality. It provides a mechanism for early dropping of packets directed toward closed or nonlistened Cisco IOS TCP/UPD ports on the router. It also provides the ability to limit protocol queue usage such that no single misbehaving protocol process can wedge the control-plane interface hold queue.

Note

The control-plane command is supported by Cisco IOS Release 12.2S only for the Cisco 7600 router. For other Cisco IOS releases, the Cisco 7600 supports only the nocontrol-plane command to discontinue a previously existing configuration condition.

With this enhancement, you can classify control-plane traffic into different categories of traffic. These categories are as follows:

Control-plane host subinterface--Subinterface that receives all control-plane IP traffic that is directly destined for one of the router interfaces. Examples of control-plane host IP traffic include tunnel termination traffic, management traffic, or routing protocols such as SSH, SNMP, BGP, OSPF, and EIGRP. All host traffic terminates on and is processed by the router. Most control-plane protection features and policies operate strictly on the control-plane host subinterface. Since most critical router control-plane services, such as routing protocols and management traffic, are received on the control-plane host subinterface, it is critical to protect this traffic through policing and protection policies. CoPP, port-filtering, and per-protocol queue thresholding protection features can be applied on the control-plane host subinterface.
Control-plane transit subinterface--Subinterface that receives all control-plane IP traffic that is software switched by the route processor. This means packets not directly destined to the router itself but rather traffic traversing through the router. Nonterminating tunnels handled by the router are an example of this type of control-plane traffic. Control-plane protection allows specific aggregate policing of all traffic received at this subinterface.
Control-plane CEF-exception subinterface--Subinterface that receives all traffic that is either redirected as a result of a configured input feature in the CEF packet forwarding path for process switching or directly enqueued in the control-plane input queue by the interface driver (for example, ARP, L2 keepalives, and all non-IP host traffic). Control-plane protection allows specific aggregate policing of this specific type of control-plane traffic.

Examples

The following example shows how to configure trusted hosts with source addresses 10.1.1.1 and 10.1.1.2 to forward Telnet packets to the control plane without constraint, while allowing all remaining Telnet packets to be policed at the specified rate. The QoS policy is then applied for aggregate CP services to all packets that are entering the control plane from all line cards in the router.


! Allow 10.1.1.1 trusted host traffic.
Router(config)# access-list 140 deny tcp host 10.1.1.1 any eq telnet 
! Allow 10.1.1.2 trusted host traffic. 
Router(config)# access-list 140 deny tcp host 10.1.1.2 any eq telnet 
! Rate-limit all other Telnet traffic.
Router(config)# access-list 140 permit tcp any any eq telnet
! Define class map “telnet-class.”
Router(config)# class-map telnet-class 
Router(config-cmap)# match access-group 140
Router(config-cmap)# exit
Router(config)# policy-map control-plane-in
Router(config-pmap)# class telnet-class
Router(config-pmap-c)# police 80000 conform transmit exceed drop
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# exit
! Define aggregate control-plane service for the active route processor.
Router(config)# control-plane
Router(config-cp)# service-policy input control-plane-in
Router(config-cp)# end

The next example also shows how to configure trusted hosts with source addresses 10.1.1.1 and 10.1.1.2 to forward Telnet packets to the control plane without constraint, while allowing all remaining Telnet packets that enter through slot 1 to be policed at the specified rate. The QoS policy is applied for distributed CP services to all packets that enter through the interfaces on the line card in slot 1 and that are destined for the control plane:


! Allow 10.1.1.1 trusted host traffic.
Router(config)# access-list 140 deny tcp host 10.1.1.1 any eq telnet 
! Allow 10.1.1.2 trusted host traffic. 
Router(config)# access-list 140 deny tcp host 10.1.1.2 any eq telnet 
! Rate-limit all other Telnet traffic.
Router(config)# access-list 140 permit tcp any any eq telnet
! Define class map “telnet-class.”
Router(config)# class-map telnet-class 
Router(config-cmap)# match access-group 140
Router(config-cmap)# exit
Router(config)# policy-map control-plane-in
Router(config-pmap)# class telnet-class
Router(config-pmap-c)# police 80000 conform transmit exceed drop
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# exit
! Define aggregate control-plane service for the active route processor.
Router(config)# control-plane slot 1
Router(config-cp)# service-policy input control-plane-in
Router(config-cp)# end

The following example shows how to apply an aggregate CoPP policy to the host control-plane traffic by applying it to the host control-plane feature path:


Router(config)# control-plane host
Router(config-cp)# service-policy input cpp-policy-host

The following example shows how to apply an aggregate CoPP policy to the transit control-plane traffic by applying it to the control-plane transit feature path:


Router(config)# control-plane transit
Router(config-cp)# service-policy input cpp-policy-transit

The following example shows how to apply an aggregate CoPP policy to the CEF-exception control-plane traffic by applying it to the control-plane CEF-exception feature path:


Router(config)# control-plane cef-exception
Router(config-cp)# service-policy input cpp-policy-cef-exception

custom-queue-list

Note

Effective with Cisco IOS XE Release 2.6 and Cisco IOS Release 15.1(3)T, the custom-queue-list command is hidden. Although this command is still available in Cisco IOS software, the CLI interactive Help does not display it if you attempt to view it by entering a question mark at the command line. This command will be completely removed in a future release, which means that you will need to use the appropriate replacement command (or sequence of commands). For more information (including a list of replacement commands), see the "Legacy QoS Command Deprecation" feature document in the Cisco IOS XE Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide or the "Legacy QoS Command Deprecation" feature document in the Cisco IOS Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide.

Note

Effective with Cisco IOS XE Release 3.2S, the custom-queue-list command is replaced by a modular QoS CLI (MQC) command (or sequence of MQC commands). For the appropriate replacement command (or sequence of commands), see the "Legacy QoS Command Deprecation" feature document in the Cisco IOS XE Quality of Service Solutions Configuration Guide.

To assign a custom queue list to an interface, use thecustom-queue-list command in interface configuration mode. To remove a specific list or all list assignments, use the no form of this command.

custom-queue-list [list-number]

10.0	This command was introduced.
12.2(33)SRA	This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRA.
12.2SX	This command is supported in the Cisco IOS Release 12.2SX train. Support in a specific 12.2SX release of this train depends on your feature set, platform, and platform hardware.

15.1(3)T	This command was modified. This command was hidden.
Cisco IOS XE Release 3.2S	This command was replaced by an MQC command (or sequence of MQC commands).

Usage Guidelines

Only one queue list can be assigned per interface. Use this command in place of the priority-listinterface command (not in addition to it). Custom queueing allows a fairness not provided with priority queueing. With custom queueing, you can control the bandwidth available on the interface when the interface is unable to accommodate the aggregate traffic enqueued. Associated with each output queue is a configurable byte count, which specifies how many bytes of data should be delivered from the current queue by the system before the system moves on to the next queue. When a particular queue is being processed, packets are sent until the number of bytes sent exceeds the queue byte count or until the queue is empty.

Use the showqueueing custom and showinterfaces commands to display the current status of the custom output queues.

Examples

In the following example, custom queue list number 3 is assigned to serial interface 0:


interface serial 0
 custom-queue-list 3
