Jack,

Your traffic leaving R2 must mark it's traffic with cos5 or 0x2e in hex which
equates to an precedence 5.B Is your router2 even marking your traffic
properly?B I would setup a monitoring port on port 2 which connects to router
2 to validate the packets coming in are indeed marked properly.B My guess
they are not.

Another thought is why are you trying to look for a greated cos value then 0
on an ICMP packet?B When you do your pings are you using extended options
commands and specifing service class 184?B You will need to do this if you
want to mark your packet with cos vaule of 5.B If not your pings will just be
normal pings.

Subject: cos rewriting on switch

Hello all,

I have a question about cos rewriting on a switch. Here is scenario:

R1(f0/0.100)-----dot1q------(f0/1)SW1(f0/2)------access-------(f0/0)R2

On R1 I configured class maps and policy map to identify what cos is
received.
SW1 has NO mls qos enabled or any cos configuration.

When I ping R1 from R2 i see that R1 receives packets marked with cos0. Why
? Packets that leave R2 are not tagged with cos value, why then R1 receives
packets cos0 ?
Is cos0 a synonym of no cos marking ?
