[c-nsp] VOIP QOS

[Mike Louis]

Are you using the maximum bandwidth command on the interfaces heading to the customer and explicitly setting the bandwidth on the interface?

I see packet delayed in the default class, which is normal with shaping, but i don't see any drops. Maybe i am missing something.

Why arent you using LLQ on the voice side ? Do you not want to queue priority traffic out that interface and just mark and rate limit it?

one option would be to use

class VOIP
   set dscp ef
   priority 2000000

LLQ has a built in rate limiter.

Just a head's up, cuz Cisco changed this...

It used to be you would do EF for voip payload and AF31 for control.

Well, Cisco changed it and now voip control is using CS3, so you need
to do a match any for voip control and hit either.
