Configuring QoS
Enabling QoS Globally
By default, QoS is disabled on the switch.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable QoS. This procedure is required.
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
mls qos
Step 3
end
Step 4
show mls qos
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
To disable QoS, use the no mls qos global configuration command.
Enabling VLAN-Based QoS on Physical Ports
By default, VLAN-based QoS is disabled on all physical switch ports. The switch applies QoS, including
class maps and policy maps, only on a physical-port basis. You can enable VLAN-based QoS on a switch
port.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable VLAN-based QoS. This procedure is
required on physical ports that are specified in the interface level of a hierarchical policy map on an SVI.
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Step 2
interface interface-id
Step 3
mls qos vlan-based
Step 4
end
Step 5
show mls qos interface interface-id
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config
Use the no mls qos vlan-based interface configuration command to disable VLAN-based QoS on the
physical port.
