Wireless Auto-QoS

Auto QoS information

Wireless Auto QoS automates deployment of wireless QoS features. It has a set of predefined profiles which can be further modified by the customer to prioritize different traffic flows. Auto-QoS matches traffic and assigns each matched packet to qos-groups. This allows the output policy map to put specific qos-groups into specific queues, including into the priority queue.

Configure wireless auto-QoS on profile policy (CLI)

You can enable AutoQoS on a profile policy to automate deployment of wireless QoS features.

You can enable AutoQoS on a profile policy.

Procedure

Step 1

Enable privileged EXEC mode.

Example:

Device# enable

Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

Configure AutoQoS wireless policy.

Example:

Device# wireless autoqos policy-profile test-profile mode voice

  • enterprise-avc—Enables AutoQoS Wireless Enterprise AVC Policy.

  • fastlane—Enable AutoQoS Wireless Fastlane Policy.

  • guest—Enable AutoQoS Wireless Guest Policy.

  • voice—Enable AutoQoS Wireless Voice Policy.

Note

 

AutoQoS MIB attribute does not support full functionality with service policy. Service policy must be configured manually. Currently, there is only support for AutoQoS mode.

What to do next


Note

After enabling AutoQoS, we recommend that you wait for a few seconds for the policy to install and then try and modify the AutoQoS policy maps if required; or retry if the modification is rejected.

Disable wireless autoqos

Disable wireless AutoQoS functionality to manually control QoS parameters or troubleshoot QoS-related issues.
Wireless AutoQoS automatically configures QoS settings for optimal wireless performance. You may need to disable it when implementing custom QoS policies or when troubleshooting network issues.

Procedure

Step 1

Enable privileged EXEC mode.

Example:

Device> enable

Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2

Shut down the policy profile.

Example:

Device# shutdown

Shuts down the policy profile.

Step 3

Globally disable wireless AutoQoS.

Example:

Device# wireless autoqos disable

Globally disables wireless AutoQoS.

Step 4

Enable the wireless policy profile.

Example:

Device# no shutdown

Enables the wireless policy profile.

Note

 

Disabling Auto QoS does not reset global radio configurations like CAC and EDCA parameters.
Wireless AutoQoS is now disabled globally, allowing for manual QoS configuration or troubleshooting without automatic QoS interference.

View Auto-QoS on policy profile (CLI)

Before you begin

AutoQoS is supported on the local mode and flex mode. AutoQoS configures a set of policies and radio configurations depending on the template. It is possible to override the service-policy that is configured by AutoQoS. The latest configuration takes effect, with AAA override policy being of highest priority.

Follow these steps to view AutoQoS on policy profile:

Procedure

Step 1

enable

Example:

Deviceenable

Enables privileged EXEC mode. Enter your password if prompted.

Step 2
