Chapter 1 Configuring QoS

Displaying Auto-QoS Information

To display the initial auto-QoS configuration, use the show auto qos [interface [interface-id]]

privileged EXEC command. To display any user changes to that configuration, use the show

running-config privileged EXEC command. You can compare the show auto qos and the show

running-config command output to identify the user-defined QoS settings.

To display information about the QoS configuration that might be affected by auto-QoS, use one of these

commands:

• show mls qos

• show mls qos maps cos-dscp

• show mls qos interface [interface-id] [buffers | queueing]

dscp-output-q]

• show mls qos input-queue

• show running-config

For more information about these commands, see the command reference for this release.

Configuring Standard QoS

Before configuring standard QoS, you must have a thorough understanding of these items:

• The types of applications used and the traffic patterns on your network.

• Traffic characteristics and needs of your network. Is the traffic bursty? Do you need to reserve

bandwidth for voice and video streams?

• Bandwidth requirements and speed of the network.

• Location of congestion points in the network.
