RE: Voice QOS question

        The LLQ does not police all traffic in excess of the configured
rate. Traffic in excess of the configured rate may be sent, but it is
not guaranteed low latency. The policing function of the LLQ only kicks
in when there is congestion on the line. Therefore, traffic in the LLQ
*can* consume the entire bandwidth of a link, but only when there is no
other traffic to be sent, and only traffic up to the configured rate is
dequeued first.

        As for the answer to the sample exam question, it depends on
what they are asking specifically. If they want you to police all
traffic as an aggregate to 1Mbps but still provide voice with 128Kbps of
priority, the outer policy should specify the policing while the inner
policy should specify the voice.

        An example config would be as follows:

Ip access-list extended VoIP
 Permit tcp any any eq 1720
 Permit udp any any range 16384 32767
!
class-map VoIP
 match access-group name VoIP
!
policy-map OUTER_POLICY
 class class-default
  police 1000000 187500 375000 conform transmit exceed drop
 service-policy INNER_POLICY
!
policy-map INNER_POLICY
 class VoIP
  priority 128
!
interface Ethernet 0
 service-policy output OUTER_POLICY
