Quality of Service Commands
The following are quality of service (QoS) commands. The commands are arranged alphabetically.
access-list rate-limit
To configure an access list for use with committed access rate (CAR) policies, use the access-list rate-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
|

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:
Step 1
Decide which precedences you want to assign to this rate-limit access list.
Step 2
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.
Step 3
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.
Step 4
The access-list rate-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

auto qos voip
To configure the AutoQoS — VoIP feature on an interface, use the auto qos voip 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 the 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.

This command was introduced.

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 two following 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, designed to handle the Voice over IP (VoIP) traffic on an interface or a permanent virtual circuit (PVC), 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 the no auto qos voip command is configured.
For low-speed Frame Relay DLCIs interconnected with ATM PVCs in the same network, the fr-atm keyword must be explicitly configured in the auto qos voip command to configure the AutoQoS — VoIP feature properly. That is, the command must be configured as auto qos voip fr-atm.
For low-speed Frame Relay DLCIs 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 auto qos voip command.
The auto qos voip command is not supported on subinterfaces.
The auto qos voip command is available for Frame Relay DLCIs.
Disabling AutoQoS — VoIP
The no auto qos voip command disables the AutoQoS — VoIP feature and removes the configurations associated with the feature.
When the no auto qos voip 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 no auto qos voip command, the AutoQoS — VoIP feature will not be removed properly.
Examples
The following example shows the AutoQoS — VoIP feature configured on a serial point-to-point subinterface 4/1.2. In this example, both the trust and fr-atm keywords are configured.
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

Usage Guidelines
You should 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.
Specifying Bandwidth as a Percentage
Besides specifying the amount of bandwidth in 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. 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, class bandwidth guarantees in kbps cannot be computed.
Bandwidth Command Restrictions
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 kbps or all the class bandwidths specified in percentages but not a mix of 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.
For more information on bandwidth allocation, refer to the chapter "Congestion Management Overview" 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.
Queue Limits
The bandwidth command can be used with the Modular Command-Line Interface (MQC) to specify the bandwidth for a particular class. When used with the 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
Using the queue-limit command to modify the default queue-limit is especially important for higher-speed interfaces, in order to meet the minimum bandwidth guarantees required by the interface.
Examples
CBWFQ Bandwidth Guarantee Example
The following example shows how bandwidth is guaranteed when only CBWFQ is configured:
! The following commands create a policy map with two classes:
!The following commands attach the policy to interface serial3/2:
The following output from the show policy-map command shows the configuration for the policy map called policy1:
Router# show policy-map policy1
Bandwidth 50 (%) Max Threshold 64 (packets)
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 called class1, and 25 percent is guaranteed for the class called class2. The output displays the amount of bandwidth as both a percentage and a number of kbps.
Router# show policy-map interface serial3/2
Service-policy output:policy1
Class-map:class1 (match-all)
5 minute offered rate 0 bps, drop rate 0 bps
Output Queue:Conversation 265
Bandwidth 772 (kbps) Max Threshold 64 (packets)
(pkts matched/bytes matched) 0/0
(depth/total drops/no-buffer drops) 0/0/0
Class-map:class2 (match-all)
5 minute offered rate 0 bps, drop rate 0 bps
Output Queue:Conversation 266
Bandwidth 386 (kbps) Max Threshold 64 (packets)
(pkts matched/bytes matched) 0/0
(depth/total drops/no-buffer drops) 0/0/0
Class-map:class-default (match-any)
5 minute offered rate 0 bps, drop rate 0 bps
In this example, interface serial3/2 has a total bandwidth of 1544 kbps. During periods of congestion, 50 percent (or 772 kbps) of the bandwidth is guaranteed to the class called class1, and 25 percent (or 386 kbps) of the link bandwidth is guaranteed to the class called class2.
CBWFQ and LLQ Bandwidth Allocation Example
The following output from the show policy-map command shows the configuration for a policy map called p1:
Router# show policy-map p1
Bandwidth 500 (kbps) Burst 12500 (Bytes)
Bandwidth remaining 50 (%) Max Threshold 64 (packets)
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 called voice1. The classes called 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
Note that in this sample output (unlike many of the others earlier in this section) the bandwidth is displayed only as a percentage. Bandwidth expressed as a number of kbps is not displayed because the bandwidth remaining percent keyword was used with the bandwidth command. The bandwidth remaining percent keyword allows you to allocate bandwidth as a relative percentage of the total bandwidth available on the interface.
Router# show policy-map interface serial3/2
Class-map:voice (match-all)
5 minute offered rate 0 bps, drop rate 0 bps
Output Queue:Conversation 264

bump
To configure the bumping 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 no bump explicit command or the bump implicit 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 (switched virtual circuit)-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 bump implicit command. To specify that the VC or PVC bundle member does not accept any bumped traffic, use the no bump traffic command.
bump {explicit precedence-level | implicit | traffic}
no bump {explicit precedence-level | implicit | traffic}
Syntax Description

12.0(23)S
|
This command was made available in vc-class and bundle-vc configuration modes on the 8-port OC-3 STM-1 ATM line card for Cisco 12000 series Internet routers.
|
Usage Guidelines
Use the bump command in bundle-vc configuration mode (for an ATM VC bundle member), 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 bump implicit command takes effect.
•
Explicit bumping: If you configure a VC or PVC with the bump explicit 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 bump traffic 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 no bump traffic 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-class atm 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 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.
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

VC configuration in bundle-VC mode
•
Bundle configuration in bundle mode
•
Subinterface configuration in subinterface mode
To display the status of bundles, use the show atm bundle svc and show atm bundle svc statistics commands.
Examples
The following example configures an SVC bundle called "sanfrancisco":
interface ATM1/0.1 multipoint
ip address 170.100.9.2 255.255.255.0
atm esi-address 111111111111.11

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 QoS 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 you can configure for a router—and, therefore, within a policy map—is 64.
Predefined Default Class
The predefined default class called class-default is available for you to use. The class class-default 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 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 or random-detect command. It cannot be used with the bandwidth command.
Examples
The following example configures 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:
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:
random-detect exponential-weighting-constant 10
Class1 has these characteristics: A minimum of 2000 kbps of bandwidth are 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 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.
The default class has these characteristics: 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 are enqueued before tail drop is enacted to handle additional packets.
Note
Note that when the policy map containing 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 configures policy for the default class included in the policy map called policy2. 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 policy2, 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.
random-detect exponential-weighting-constant 14
The following example configures 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 are 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 containing 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.
The following example configures 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 containing this class is attached to the interface to stipulate the service policy for that interface, available bandwidth is assessed.
random-detect exponential-weighting-constant 10
The following example configures 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.
The following example configures 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.

Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must first enter the bundle or bundle svc 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, oam retry, 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:
! The following commands apply class1 to the bundle called bundle1:
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.
