Dot1x Authentication followed by 'mls qos trust'

Hi All,

Need some expertise, pardon me from posting this consultancy qns here, have
googled, researched on Cisco, even lodged a TAC, but cant get any answers.

Have a requirement on the network

VideoConference Unit which is capable of marking DSCP traffic will be
connected onto the network.
Dot1x Authentication will be used. Upon successfully authenticated, a
multimedia vlan will be assigned to that switchport. On top of that, 'mls qos
trust' have to be configured on that switchport, in order
to trust the DSCP markings generated by the VideoConference Unit.

When the switchport is not connected by any VideoConference Unit, it shall
revert to default settings
without any 'mls qos trust' configured on it.

I am hoping to combine a macro 'mls qos trust' with the dot1x authentication,
however, dot1x doesnt seems to have this capability.

Is there any workaround.

Much appreciated for any kind replies.

Cheers
Nit
