Hi Packet Man ;)

If you want to mark in the incoming interface, and prioritize in the
outgoing interface, the second example is the way to go.

But you can mark and prioritize at the same time in the outgoing interface,
the configuration will be simpler then:

access-list 100 permit udp any any range 16384 32767

class-map voice
   match access-group 100

policy-map mark-and-queue
   class voice
    priority 64
    set ip prec 5

int s0
service-policy output mark-and-queue

Cheers,
Ato.

Hi all,

I'm studying QOS and have a question about when I should reuse a defined
class or create a new class-map.

Consider the following config's in which voice traffic is marked with ip
prec 5 on the input int and prioritized on the output int:

****** 1st config ********

access-list 100 permit udp any any range 16384 32 767

class-map voice
   match access-group 100

policy-map mark
  class voice
  set ip prec 5

policy-map queue
   class voice
    priority 64

int e0
service-policy input mark

int s0
service-policy output queue

****** 2nd config ************

access-list 100 permit udp any any range 16384 32767

class-map voice
   match access-group 100

class-map prec-5
   match ip precedence 5

policy-map mark
  class voice
  set ip prec 5

policy-map queue
   class prec-5
   priority 64

int e0
service-policy input mark

int s0
service-policy output queue

****************************

Notice that the only difference between the 2 config's is that in the 2nd
config, a new class-map was defined which referenced traffic marked with ip
prec 5 instead of reusing the previously defined class-map voice and used
that class to prioritized traffic. Assume that no other traffic is marked
with ip prec 5.

Between these 2 different config's, is one config better than the other? If

so, why?

Thanks
