[c-nsp] QoS for VoIP basics

[Adam Greene]

Hi,

I am trying to master basic QoS concepts in a test lab before deploying general policies for our network:



        3750            |both connections 10/half
        |  |            |
 vlan700|  |vlan710     |
        |  |            |
        2950    
       ||  ||  
       ||  ||           |all connections 100/full
PC A--- |  | --PC B     |
        |  |            |
VoIP A--    --VoIP B    |


My aim is to make the VoIP traffic crystal clear no matter how much traffic I push between the two PC's.

Here are my configs:

====
2950
====

wrr-queue bandwidth 100 1 1 0
wrr-queue cos-map 1 0 1 2 3 4 6 7
wrr-queue cos-map 4 5
!
class-map match-all VoIP
  match access-group 100
!
!
policy-map All_Phone_Traffic_46
  class VoIP
    set ip dscp 46
!
access-list 100 permit ip any any

PLUS the ports into which VoIP A and B plug are configured with "service-policy input All_Phone_Traffic_46"

3750

(note that the following was generated via the "auto qos voip trust" interface command)

mls qos queue-set output 1 buffers 10 10 26 54
mls qos queue-set output 2 buffers 16 6 17 61
mls qos

PLUS the two ports which connect to the 2950 are configured with:

srr-queue bandwidth share 10 10 60 20
srr-queue bandwidth shape  10  0  0  0
mls qos trust dscp <-- (this was autoconfigured as trust cos, but I changed it to dscp)
auto qos voip trust



Unfortunately, when I pump 10Mbps (100 TCP streams) between PC A and B, the voice still chops up. 

Any hints? Maybe I'm missing something obvious.

Thanks,
Adam
