Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750 Auto-QoS Egress Discards
Dec 18, 2011
I have an issue where I'm seeing output discards on pretty much all my ports configured for QoS. The switches are cisco WS-C3750V2-48PS running 12.2(50)SE1. There are four switches stacked using stack cables. The QoS implemeted was auto-qos with no modifications to the standard config. All ports are in queue-set 1. The phones connected are Cisco 7942's. Already did the standard check for speed duplex mismatch, crc's, runts, giants, etc...No discards before the QoS was applied. No bug ID's I could find regarding these switches and this IOS version. The one thing noticed is that 99% of all the drops are from queue's 2 and 4 or 1 and 3 doing the below command.
**I've limited the cut and paste as to not clutter the discussion until someone requests something else**

After opening up Solarwinds NPM, I noticed that a few of my interfaces had lots of discards (who knows how long it's been sets the counters were reset)
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/25description Etherchannel to MamaCassswitchport trunk encapsulation dot1qswitchport mode trunkswitchport nonegotiatepriority-queue outchannel-group 4 mode on
interface GigabitEthernet2/0/25description Etherchannel to MamaCassswitchport trunk encapsulation dot1qswitchport mode trunkswitchport nonegotiatepriority-queue outchannel-group 4 mode on
interface Port-channel4switchport trunk encapsulation dot1qswitchport mode trunkswitchport nonegotiate,It looks as if priority-queue was configured outbound on these interfaces, could this be the cause of the transmit discards which are now up to 79,835, I just reset the counters on the interfaces a little while ago.
I'm not the best in the world when it comes to QoS, we do have some VoIP phones, but they are only a specific network, and do not travel outside, since there are used mainly for VoIP training. I do know both interfaces are running the default of FIFO.

I have a 3750 that when a client computer shuts down the switch will not discover it on start-up unless I bounce the switch. Pretty dependable product so,.... did I miss something in my config? Switch is GBIC'd for Fiber?

why the AutoQoS macro does not implement "priority-queue out" when configured on the 3750 platform running certain versions of software. The only other platform I have experience with AutoQos is on the 4500 and it enables priority queuing as expected. So what's up with autoqos on the 3750 on version 12.2(35)SE5?
When it comes to configuring QoS on campus user/phone access ports there are some important settings that can and should be considered but one can argue that enabling the priority queue is the single most impactful or important command. So I was very surprised and concerned when I didn't see priority-queue out. Cisco describes AutoQoS as a simple, quick way of deploying QoS on the LAN and it precludes you from having to learn all of the differences between hardware platforms. But is it true that this tool produces an incomplete config solution? Let me know if I am missing something.
Here is an example of what AutoQoS produces when applied to a 4507 with WS-X4648-RJ45V+E:(other interface commands are left out for simplicity)

We have a switch that, when configuring auto qos on and edge port facing video equipment, the upstream port channel drops. I was wondering if no auto qos would have to be configured on the member ports of the port channel prior to enabling auto qos on any other ports.

We have a failover pair of load balancers (non-Cisco) which are connected to each other via Catalyst 6509Es with Sup720 supervisor cards. Failover is achieved by the newly active load balancer GARPing all its service IP addresses with the relevant MAC address in order to update nearby ARP tables (failover GARPs are fired out by the load balancers at a rate of 200 per second). Failing over services between these load balancers has been found to be problematic, with numerous services not failing over in a timely manner.
Some of the load balanced networks involved are routed on the Sup720s, the rest are routed on FWSM modules in the same chassis. Problems occur only with VLANs routed on the Sup720s; all VLANs routed on the FWSMs fail over without issue.
Investigation has shown that this is due to a proportion of the ARP table entries not being updated in the Sup720 and (with the default 4 hour ARP table timeout) subsequently requiring a manual flush of the "wrong" ARP entries.
Testing by throwing GARPs at both the FWSM and the Sup720 has revealed the following:
we can quite happily throw ~200 GARPs per second at the FWSM and all the relevant ARP table entries are updated with the correct MAC address. This fits with the sucessful failovers for any FWSM routed networks. however, repeating the same test with a VLAN routed on the Sup720 results in GARPs being dropped by the Sup720. The Sup720 keeps discarding a proportion of GARPs until we drop the rate of GARP to <~75 per second. We're not rate-limiting ARP anywhere in the Sup720 - hardware or otherwise - and the FWSM handles the rate of GARP without issue. Is there any built-in restriction on the Sup720 we're not aware of that would cause the observed behaviour, is it configurable.

I have one specific trouble with Catalyst 3560CG switch and Stardom reserved industrial controller. Controller has 2 processors, one of them after(!) negotiation become main with IP 192.168.1.1, other one stays in reserve with IP 192.168.1.129. If main one shuts down, spare one becomes main with IP 192.168.1.1. This perfectly works with DLINK and MOXA level 2 switches, but fails with Catalyst 3560, because spare one cannot even connect to switch port. I don't know the exact reason of it, but i suspect, that it happens because of before negotiation both controllers have ip 192.168.1.1 (i know, that it is wrong and weird, but so it goes). First of them correctly connects to switch port, which goes up and passes pings. Second processor tries to connect to switch port, which goes several times up and very soon down, then processor lefts his tries to connect to anybody and become idle. The switch seems to some way check IPs of 1-st and 2-nd port packets, and shuts down 2-nd port. I have connected via hyperterminal and tried to disable some level 3 functions and checks of the switch, but this wasn't useful. how exactly(or at least approximately) should i configure a switch to make this bundle work?

We have a Cisco 6513 Switch. During some parts of the day it is having large amounts of transmit discards on a certain interface because of the amount of data we are pushing. We have determined it is a link problem and not a problem with the switch. The link cannot handle the amount of packets the switch is pushing out. I was wondering if there is a way to create a buffer or a way to regulate the maximum amount of packets that can leave that interface without losing any packets?

I am having an issue pinpointing why my 2821 router is discarding so many packets when transferring data to our second site. The traffic flows from the local lan, to the router, where it is redirected via WCCP to a WAN optimization device, back to the router and over a GRE tunnel to the second site where the same process happens. The traffic does get there, but the LAN/Repeater router interfaces have around 20,000-60,000 input drops an hour. From the output below, it looks like traffic is being dropped by the RP.
I just restarted the router as a last resort, and here is what has accumulated in the last 30 min:
FastEthernet0/0/1 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 0025.840c.7680 (bia 0025.840c.7680)

Problem: My traffic coming inbound appears to be marked but is not marked when egressing.
Setup:
Ingress from encoder G3/9->> Egress G8/1Default DSCP/COS map table (DSCP 24 is COS3)
Cos-dscp map:
cos: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
------------------------------------
dscp: 0 8 16 24 32 40 48 56
1. Any reason COS 3 is not marked outbound on this traffic? I'm determining this by doing a wireshark off of interface g8/1. The traffic appears to be marked on the ingress correctly but does not maintain its mark on the egress. I can confirm this with equipment on other Ethernet links in produciton as well as my test port listed in the config below with wireshark.
FYI: Unfortunately with my cards in the 6509 I cannot port mirror and see outbound multicast (determined through a TAC case). Because the STB does not understand tagged traffic I setup the native vlan for it to function. To see the multicast with tags I temporarily remove the native command and do the wireshark to see the multicast. It still shows a COS setting of 0. I will try to attach a capture of a multicast packet.

I have a customer who requires to identify and police traffic on egress on a 3560 trunk link. I cannot use ingress classifications because we do not know what route the traffic will take yet. The egress interface connects to multipoint wireless equipment with 4 different bandwidth point to point links. So the ingress traffic may be routed via any one of 4 point to point wireless links connected to the single egress interface. Am I correct in assuming we cannot mark on the egress direction then put the traffic in a SRR shaped egress queue based on the marking ? So we would only have the option to egress queue based on markings applied or trusted on the inbound direction ? I had thought of some kind of policy map/aggregate policer configuration based on the exit VLAN but it seems we can only apply this type of config inbound. From reading the 3560 configuration guides it seems the 3560 cannot deploy the kind of requirements this customer needs. Perhaps they should have deployed some kind of Metro switch ?

I'm trying to configure a egress netflow in a 6500 (VSS) with VS-S720-10G supervisor. I foud some old posts and understood that netflow wasn't supported on 6500 but i found a new document and it seems that netflow is supported in Supervisor Engine 2T:[URL] Does the netflow still not supported in VS-S720-10G? It's weird because the command is supported:

We have a pair of 6509 working in a VSS configuration (IOS 12.2(33)SX5). The 6509s connect to a pair of ASAs (7.2 code) running in an Active/Standby setup. These ASAs in turn connect to routers going to remote sites. I have configured Netflow on the following VLANS,
VLAN 10 - Servers Vlan
VLAN 9 - Transit/ASA VLAN (connects ASAs to 6509s). All traffic originating from any VLAN on the 6509 crosses this VLAN in order to reach remote sites and vice versa
I configured the netflow source VLAN 11 although I am not collecing any netflow from it.Although I have been getting lots of Netflow info, I noticed that netflow for traffic originating from any user VLAN on the 6509s going to any remote site via TRANSIT/ASA VLAN(9) does not get reported, I even tested with 4 GB traffic but no result. Only reverse traffic (i.e. from remote site to user VLAN) is reported as it traverses the Transit VLAN (9).
I read somewhere that egress netflow is not supported in 6500, but isnt traffic originating from a user vlan to a remote site via the transit VLAN (9) considered ingress with respect to the transit VLAN (9)? I would like to know whether bidirectional Netflow is supported on 6500 VLANS. I have mimimum control on routers beyond the ASAs, and since these ASAs run 7.2 code netflow is not supported, and Monitoring this Transit Vlan gives me extremely useful info.
I do get netflow biderectional traffic from the Server Vlan 10, but I think it is correlated by the netflow collector from vlans 9 and 10. [code]

I have a 4507R-E chassis with Supervisor IV running IOS 12.2(50)SG. I am trying to configure "auto qos voip trust" on some of the uplink ports. When I try to configure it on a port that is in a channel group, I get the error "AutoQoS Error: AutoQoS can not be configured on member port(s) of a port-channel". I have also tried configuring it on the channel interface, but it is not an available command under the channel interface. Is there a way to do auto qos on the channel interfaces or their member ports or does it have to be configured manually?

I have 4948E module switch at customer site and below is the show version output. Image on the switch is not supporting 'AUTO QoS' as i need to enable Auto Qos on it to prioritize Voice traffic. Which image supports Auto QoS feature . Image should have L3 functionality also i mean it should support Routing protocols. I tried to enable auto QoS using by configuring "QoS' globally but no luck...with existing image.

We just replaced our Cisco 1240 AP in one of our shops with a Cisco 1141 AP. This is not controller based.
We use several wireless (infrastructure mode) auto diagnostic tools which connect to the AP. We also have many laptops which run the diagnostic software.
We had no problems with our 1240AP. With our 1141, we cannot connect to the wireless tools if both the laptop and the tools are connected to the 1141. If I connect one to the 1240 and one to the 1141, they can see each other and work fine. IF they are both connected to the 1141, they show up as connected in the AP, they can ping each other, but the software does not communicate.

I have a switch(6500) with 2 vlans(2 SUBNETS) and from the other side of my network i have 2 terminal servers.
I want to have a VIP in my 6500 switch which i have the 2 vlans and when the first vlan(network) try to connect to the VIP
my switch will forward to first terminal.When the second vlan try to connect to VIP the switch will forward to second terminal.
I'd like the switch to decide in wich terminal server will forwared the packet based on source network.
I am not sure how i can do this???I use VIP with SLB???I use NAT???PBR?

Are there any differences between the autoqos commands on a WS-C2960S switches (or in any other series)? Follow the commands:
- auto qos trust
- auto qos voip trust
I was checking the documentation on this link:
URL
And couldn't find any great difference between the two commands, as far as I could see they'll set the Ingress and Egress queues the same way.
Are there any differences between those two commands (auto qos trust and auto qos voip trust)? If so, when should I use one and the other?

I'm using Packet Tracer for testing since I don't have the actual equipment. I have configured etherchannel between two 2960 Switches. I have used the trunk ports FE 0/23 and FE 0/24 on both switches to create the etherchanel. I have connected one PC with each switch. The PCs are in the same VLAN and can ping each other. Howver, when I take down one of the links in the etherchannel, the other link does not take over and I get 100% packet loss. I don't know what seems to be the problem. I'm quoting the configurations below:

Are there issues with the auto upgrade feature for 3750X stacks, either historically or currently?
Some people prefer to upgrade switch stacks manually by disconnectiong the stack cables and uprading code on each switch.
I've done the manual procedure in the past and have not tried the auto upgrade (I have the procedure for the auto upgrade).

We are facing to an annoying issue. We have a 6509 running in Catos 8.3(4) with WS-X6548-GE-TX, WS-X6348-RJ-45 and WS-X6148-RJ-45. When we configure the mode in auto negotiation, it comes up in half duplex. We need to configure the speed mode at 100Mbit/Full to make it work. But if the chassis or port restarts (not the server), the link becomes half duplex. This happens only on module in Gigabyte like WS-X6548-GE-TX.
Cable have been replaced but does not work. It is not happened on another chassis running on IOS 12.2(18)SXF17b with WS-X6548-GE-TX.

I have a 4510R-E chassis with SUP7-E running IOS XE version 3.01.01.SG. I am unable to create a port-channel and apply auto-qos for VOIP.If I configure auto-qos on the physical interfaces, I get this message when I try adding them to the port channel:
"The attached policymap is not suitable for member either due to non-queuing actions or due to type of classmap filters."
Auto-qos is not an available command in the port-channel interface configuration, but if I try adding the service policies that were created by auto-qos to the port channel manually, it lets me apply the input policy but on the output policy I get this message:
"A service-policy with queuing actions can be attached in output direction only on physical ports."
With the input policy applied to the port-channel interface, I tried addign the output policy to the physical ports and I got this message:
"A service-policy with non-queuing actions should be attached to the port-channel associated with this physical port."
Is there a way to get the auot-qos policies applied to the port-channel properly?

We have a stack of switches that is at the max number of members allowed in the stack. Problem is we are running out of port density and need to add more ports. So instead of adding a whole new stack I would rather replace 2 of the 24-port swicthes with 48-port switches.
If the two 24-port swicthes we are removing are stack members and neither of them are the stack master, I should be able to replace the 24-port switches with the 48-port switches without bringing the master offline? If the new 48-port switches are running the same IOS version as the current 24-port swicthes, they should add themselves to the stack?Would I have to tell the new 48-port swicthes what switch numbers they are replacing in order for them to be added to the stack since we are at the max number of members?Also since the 48-port swicthes are replacing 24-port switches will the master give the 48-port switches the configuration for only the 24-ports?
