A question on QoS

Hi,

I am new to QoS. I have a few questions regarding qos. It would be great if
someone can help me with it.

1. For shaping, we can either configure a policy-map with "shape
peak|average" under it OR use "mls qos" commands to implement it. My
question is, how to decide what to use.

2. If i do not issue any "mls qos" commands and just use "shape
peak|average" under the policy-map , are the mls qos value for the port
automatically calculated and applied based the value configured using the
"shape peak| average" command?

3. When using CBWFQ, do we treat each class of traffic as a different
queue? If yes, how is the mapping of this done into the queues at the port?

Thanks and Regards,

Chetan
