Chapter 4 QoS in an AVVID-Enabled Wide-Area Network
Verifying QoS
Note
The DSCP table reflects that the drop-preference bit is a factor in deciding which application to drop
first in the even of queue congestion. For example, DSCP 6 is (statistically) dropped more often than
DSCP 4, which is dropped more often than DSCP 2.
It may be surprising to see DSCP values other than 0, 2, 4 and 6 in the default queue, but this is perfectly
normal if the traffic is marked at CS6 or CS7 (IP Precedence 6 and 7). These IP Precedence values are
used by routing protocols.
Example 2
This second example is the output of a voice, video and data policy applied to a high-speed Frame Relay
PVC on a distributed platform (notice the hierarchical policy. In this example, you will note that:
·
There are no drops for voice traffic.
·
There are no drops for video traffic.
·
There are no drops for voice-control traffic.
·
Within the gold data, drops are increasing according to the drop-preference bit.
·
Within the silver data, drops are increasing according to the drop-preference bit.
·
Within the best-effort traffic, drops are increasing according to the drop-preference bit.
