Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2960 - VOIP Traffic Prioritization
Dec 28, 2011
I have a new VOIP implementation using 2960 switches. I want to prioritize voice traffic. After creating VLAN 2 I did the following:
Per Cisco, I did the following on my up-link ports:
switch port trunk allowed vlan 1,2
switch port mode trunk
switch port nonegotiate
priority-queue out
mls qos trust cos
switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,2
switchport mode trunk
switchport nonegotiate
priority-queue out
mls qos trust cos
spanning-tree port fast trunk
spanning-tree bpduguard enable
On my ports where a VOIP phone was plugged in, I did the following:
switch port trunk allowed v lan 1,2switchport mode trunk switch port no negotiate priority-queue outmls qos trust cos spanning-tree port fast trunk spanning-tree bpduguard enable
How can I verify that my voice traffic is being prioritized?

I have a device which will be sending voice and data packets and is able to mark the packets with DSCP values. Voice, 18 and Data 42.If this was a straight through network, I'd be clear on how to handle this, but.....I will be putting this traffic into a VLAN to isolate it from some other traffic on the network. What is the best way to prioritize this traffic inside the VLAN? Will the Cisco switch look at and respect the DSCP values inside the VLAN and prioritize accordingly inside the VLAN? Or, do I need to do some sort of DSCP to 802.1p mapping? Another option I would be fine with would be mapping the DSCP values for voice and data to two different VLANs and then giving the voice VLAN priority over the data VLAN .... I'm using 3750E switches.

I have a Nexus 5500 which is the core of our network and we have access layer switches uplinked to it. I know by default the qos markings will be trusted.
1. On a trunk uplink from an access layer switch to the Nexus, I have "mls qos trust dscp". Will the DSCP marking be preserved when it reaches the Nexus?
2. How do I do prioritization of voice traffic on an uplink on Nexus based on DSCP EF?

I have a Cisco SG 300-20 as the core switch, layer 3. It is 192.168.4.6 on VLAN1 and 192.168.5.1 for VLAN2 (VOIP). All the ports are set in trunk mode. DHCP relay is setup on this switch.
The phones connected into a layer 2, Catalyst 2960-S switch. All ports are set in trunk mode. Default gateway on it is set to 192.168.5.1.
DHCP for both VLANs is provided by a Windows Server 2008 R2 server (the relay IP 192.168.4.15).
There is also an ASA 5510 in the mix which is 192.168.4.1. It has a route added to it for the 192.168.5.0 network to go to the SG 300 (192.168.5.1).
Just the two switches can ping each other on the 192.168.5.x network when I "add vlan 2" to the trunk port that is connected between the SG 300 and the 2960. The phones don't get DHCP on the 2960 switch. And I cannot ping 192.168.5.x from the ASA or anything else on the 192.168.4.x network.
After a bit of reading on intra-vlan routing for the SG 300 switch, I am thinking the SG 300 has to be the "center" of things so I need to make it 192.168.4.1 to be the gateway for both VLANs and change the ASA to 192.168.4.2 for VLAN1, etc. And I really can't do asymmetric routing with this switch.

regarding QOS on Nexus 7000. Our Nexus 7000's form a collapsed distribution/core layer, our access layer switches are are a mixture of Cisco 3750 & Cisco 4507. 3750 switches will connect to Nexus switches via 1Gb uplink, 4507 switches will connect via 10Gb uplinks. Each Nexus will be connected via 20Gb port channel, all servers connect to the Nexus switches via 1Gb links. We're implementing a new telephone system soon which will be using VOIP so I need to configure the switches to perform QOS. The IP phones will mark the RTP traffic with DSCP value EF and call signaling traffic CS3. I'm fine configuring qos on the access layer switches, its just the Nexus switches which I'm not sure about.
Do I actually need to configure any QOS parameters on the Nexus switches so they will prioritise the VOIP traffic. If my understanding the Nexus switches will trust the DSCP values and assign the traffic to the relevent queues?
Just for information VOIP is the only traffic I will be marking QOS values

I have 2 hosts, 1 plugged in fa 0/21 in VLAN 101 and another in fa 0/22 in VLAN 101 on our L2 Cisco 2960. If I try and transfer files from either host the gig 0/1 trunk port on the 2960 leading tot he 3750 fa 0/1 port hits 100mb (using a real time bandwidth monitor tool), but why? This VLAN is on the same switch, why does it go one way up the trunk to the L3 3750 switch? The L3 3750 is the VTP server and the 2960 is a client. I would of thought the traffic stays local. The 2 hosts don't even have a gateway set.To sum up the typology the 2960 and 3750 are trunked using a single cable. The 3750 hangs of a ASA firewall using SVIs.Here is whatthe traffic looks like when copying a file between hosts (2gb file).
3750 L3 Switch (VTP Server)
interface FastEthernet1/0/4
description Trunk to Cisco 2960 Gig 0/1
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
switchport nonegotiate

Attached setup i am planning for testing multicast output from different vendors using VLC and STB. This Setup made to test the picture quality between the vendors at the same time on the multi viewer screen.
1) Only a 2960 Gig port switch with only one L2 v lan with IGMP snooping enabled.
In this scenario where Source and receivers are in the same L2 v lan ( no L3 interface is involved) hope i would able to test all the multicast sources with out any additional configuration on the Cisco switch.

I am trying to setup a network using Cisco 2960 switches with vlans configured. One vlan will handle video coming from four cameras that are connected to another 2960.
We have four cameras feeeding one port each on a 2960, that 2960 in turn feeds one port on the main 2960 which is the video vlan for that site. From the site it goes back to a Cisco 3750 to be sent over to a Sonicwall firewall. If we connect to the 2960 that the camera are connected to we can see the video, but not on the main site 2960.

I have a Cisco ASA 5520 (8.0) and I'm trying to figure out how to prioritize traffic to specific websites (by either domain names or IP addresses/ranges). This document [URL] has some great examples, but I'm not able to create a class-map that will match addresses. I'm not doing any other traffic manipulation on this ASA.

I have two goals on my Cisco 3750E -
* Limit bandwidth to match carrier provided bandwidth (10M ethernet port, but only 6M provisioned)
* Prioritize some traffic over others through the use of a priority queue.
I have come up with this design:
access-list 100 remark priority traffic
access-list 100 permit ip 10.1.1.0 0.0.3.255 any
access-list 100 permit ip any 10.1.1.0 0.0.3.255
[Code]....
How do I know? Is there a show command to show priority packets?
Am I right in assigning dscp 46 to this interesting traffic? That way it goes to queue 2?
Am I right in applying the priority-queue out command to the interface?
We also have voice traffic. But I think i can trust it to queue up into the router with trusted dscp

For my Lan, I have created two Vlan; Vlan 10 = for Users and Vlan 20 = For Database Servers,There are 15 Lan computer/laptop and 5 SQL database server (Dell Server) connected through same 24 port cisco 2960 switch. Means, 15 + 5 port occupied.
I have applied access list on cisco switch to restrict communication between vlan 10 and vlan 20.But My main purpose to create two Vlan is not for any kind of communication or restriction. My main Purpose is that Users traffic do not distrub or choke or affect the Database servers. then what will i need to do for that is VLAN Concept is sufficient for my concern OR I will need to buy seperate Cisco Switch to connect 5 database servers OR Else ?

I have an existing stack of 4 x 2960-S switches connected by stack cables.I would like to add another 2960-S switch to the stack but am unable to as the 2960-S will only allow 4 x 2960-S switches per stack.how I would add the 5th 2960-S switch to the existing stack of 4 x 2960-S switches.

We just purchased cisco 2960 for our VoIP needs and we are using polycom phones, and Phone and Computer will use same port. Since Polycom phones are capable working with CDP protocol and we are hoping to get another switch to expand VoIP network. I found easiest way of setting up each port is as following (from the cisco tutorial)
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#mls qos
Switch(config)#interface fastethernet 0/1
Switch(config-if)#mls qos trust cos
Switch(config-if)#switchport voice vlan dot1p
Switch(config-if)#switchport voice vlan 10
Switch(config-if)#switchport mode access
Switch(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20
Switch(config-if)#exit
My first question,when we are using switchport voice vlan dot1p ,I thought we instruct the switch port to use 802.1P priority tagging for voice traffic and to use the default native VLAN (VLAN 0) to carry all traffic.Do I still need to create a Vlan 20 for data and Vlan 10 for voice ?
Secondly,same tutorial adds these commands as well,Do you think for our set up, using those commands are feasible ?
Switch(config-if)#switchport priority extend trust
Switch(config-if)#priority-queue out
Switch(config-if)#spanning-tree portfast
Switch(config-if)#spanning-tree bpduguard enable
Switch(config-if)#exit
Thirdly,when we get another switch and do the same configuration for the second switch, can I use any port on Switch 1 as uplink without doing any configuration ?

I read some papers about QoS. The thing is that I have to implement 30 switches with QoS to connect to a lot of Cisco IP phones. The switches are Cisco 2960S with code image "C2960S Software (C2960S-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 12.2(55)SE3". Should I use autoQoS feature or manually configure them?. How should I treat uplinks between access switchs and core/distribution? I have a lot of doubts regarding queueing, because all the info I had read its for another model/image.

I have a little weird request at work. One of our offices would like to split the VOIP traffic. At that office we have a 10MB primary and 3MB backup circuit. Currently the phones are routing over the 10MB circuit. The General Manager would like to use the 3MB backup circuit for VOIP traffic. For the 3MB we have two T1 lines bundled together in a multilink. Configuration is bellow if needed

I am tasked to connect my VoIP phones from remote site to my corp site. Basically all remote phones will be registering into a VoIP server in corp site. I have a site to site vpn tunnel established already from remote site to corp site. My hardware includes the following:
-Cisco ASA 5505
-Cisco small business POE switch SF300 24p
-Avaya 2015p VoIP phones
Successfully Register remote VoIP phones to corporate VoIP server 10.30.18.55.I have already configured vlan1 10.30.15.0/24(inside lan) and vlan2 public int(outside Internet) which my dmz only allows 2 per my basic asa licensing.When I connect my phones and register it states "subnet conflict" unable to register.

try to configure QoS on a Cisco Small Business SG300 Switch. I followed the instruction on [URL] and configured one Port for tagging my Traffic from a Aastra IP Phone. Tagging works fine (i verified with wireshark).The problem is, that all traffic to a PC connected directly to the Aastra IP Phone is blocked. Is there a possibility to tag any other traffic to the port as a default?

We are going to be expanding our Shoretel phone system in our HQ and I need to get QoS configured correctly. All of our offices are connected via MPLS and I need to make sure that we are sending QoS tagged traffic to our provider. The phones are tagged by the director, but there is other traffic for call control that needs to be tagged. I don't have access to our CPE router as it is managed by Sprint. The Sprint router is connected to our internal network. We have our data network running on (4) 3750x switches running 12.2(55) with IP feature set.
The problem is that many of these commands don't work on the 3750 (priority, bandwidth, match protocol, etc...) and the configuration assumes you are applying this to an outbound queue which is not supported on the 3750. I think I have to do this with policing, but I'm not sure what interfaces need to have this applied.

I'm looking to configure the QOS for VOIP on my network.I have a switch SG300 and several no Cisco VOIP phone. What are the parameters to be taken to implement the QOS?
What is the procedure for installing the QOS? I need to create a VLAN for the data and one for VOIP?I read in the quick start guide that there is auto-QOS for VOIP?This can be done from the GUI? what are the options to put?

I am facing a problem with transmitting of VoIP traffic through VPN.
I have a 1921 router in my end where two ISP's terminate and load balancing is done over the ISP'S. I also have a site-to-site IPSEC VPN connection to remote location. Also I am having to analog phones connected to the network through an ATA. My Call manager is in the peer end and has public IP assigned to it. The IP phones get registered when coonected to general inernet connection.
The loadbalancing and VPN is working fine. Now I need to transmit the VoIP traffic over the VPN. I have configured the same but seems not working. [code]

We are using an ASA 5510 as our gateway to our ISP. All of our VOIP traffic is sent to an Internet SIP provider for our outbound calls. Our pipe to the Internet is 100Mbps metro ethernet. I am trying to find a way to provide QoS for this traffic so that I can reserve 20Mbps of the available 100Mbps pipe for VOIP traffic.From what I've been able to figure out so far I would use a combination of priority queues and traffic policing. However, it seems that this is nearly impossible to accomplish because I cannot control the remote device that my ASA connects to because it is the ISP device. I could police traffic on the inside interface of the ASA. However, lets say that a client on our network starts downloading from an Internet host and the downloaded traffic saturates my Internet connection. I could police this incoming (from the Internet) traffic on my outside interface of the firewall. This would drop the packets but the bandwidth would have already been used by the time it reaches my firewall.Would the fact that I'm policing incoming traffic on my outside interface cause the sender to throttle down their transmit rate because packets are being dropped? Would this achieve my goal of guaranteeing available bandwidth for my VOIP traffic by not allowing other traffic to saturate the link?Most documents I find regarding this topic describe providing QoS for VOIP traffic traversing a VPN connection in which case you could configure both end devices.

I have a SF300 24 P and Iam trying to configure a voice vlan this is what I have done so far and it doesnt work.
1. create vlan 30 for voice traffic and enable it
2. Telephony OUI add my mac address for allworx phones
3. Port to VLAN add 30 has tagged, port to vlan 1 untagged
4. Vlan to port I try to add 30 and get this error (Port e15 is candidate in voice Vlan 30 and cant be configured as static member in the vlan.
5. Under Discovery LLDP, LLDP MED port Setting Enable MED status, then all other options to yes
In my LLDP neighbor information all my phones are there and says under port ID 0 ( my phones support LLDP and CDP)

We've been configuring our swtichports as follows for our 7945 and 6941 type VoIP Phones, but are having problems witht the 6901.
VLANS
Vlan 900 is a VoIP VLAN
Vlan 999 is a NULL VLAN and is shut down:
interface g0/1
switchport access vlan 999 {VLAN to direct data traffic to the bit bucket becuase a PC shouldn't be connected to this port}
switchport mode access
switchport voice vlan 900
mls qos trust cos
spanning-tree portfast
The 6901 phone doesn't support multiple VLANs, so our configuration above does not work unless vlan 999 is turned on (not good security wise). We got the phones to work also by removing vlan 999 and switchport mode access.
switchport voice vlan 900
mls qos trust cos
spanning-tree portfast
solution that provides the discarding of data for the access VLAN, while supporting the VoIP vlan for this phone?
