Product Features and Benefits

Service Breadth
Advanced QoS • This feature enables end-to-end QoS in the network by extending the QoS
trust boundary to the edge of the network.
• The switches support configuring QoS ACPs on all ports to ensure proper
policing and marking on a per-packet basis using ACPs. Up to four ACPs per
switch are supported in configuring either QoS ACPs or security filters.
QoS Classification Support at Ingress
• The switches support QoS classification of incoming packets for QoS flows
based on Layer 2, Layer 3, and Layer 4 fields.
• The following Layer 2 fields or a combination can be used for classifying
incoming packets to define QoS flows: source MAC address, destination
MAC address, 16-bit Ethertype.
• The following Layer 3 and 4 fields or a combination can be used to classify
incoming packets to define QoS flows: source IP address, destination IP
address, TCP source or destination port number, UDP source or destination
port number.
QoS Metering/Policing at Ingress
• Support for metering/policing of incoming packets restricts incoming traffic
flows to a certain rate.
• The switches support up to 6 policers per Fast Ethernet port, and 60 policers
on a Gigabit Ethernet port.
• The switches offer granularity of traffic flows at 1 Mbps on Fast Ethernet
ports, and 8 Mbps on Gigabit Ethernet ports.
QoS Marking at Ingress
• The switches support marking/remarking packets based on state of policers/
meters.
• The switches support marking/remarking based on the following mappings:
from DSCP to 802.1p, and 802.1p to DSCP.
• The switches support 14 well-known and widely used DSCP values.
• The switches support classifying or reclassifying packets based on default
DSCP per port.
• The switches support classifying or reclassifying frames based on default
802.1p value per port.
• The switches support 802.1p override at ingress.
