Re: Can't use QOS on isolated or community VLAN ? Replace 3560

Since private VLAN's doc says SVI only carries the
primary VLAN, There is no such thing as taking QOS
action on the isloated or community VLAN's frames
in the SVI. To do that we have to disable SVI.

But without SVI there is no such thing as Vlan-based
QOS in 3560.

However, if SVI is not needed in a particular network,
without SVI, 3550 can still per-port-per-vlan QOS thus
discriminating traffic with respect to VLAN. That
needs to be done one port at a time. Administrative
overhead, but works. But this can't be done in 3560
at all. Because 3560 does not have "match vlan".
