Output Queue Drops!

NullCode

HI Guys,

I am not good with QoS, maybe someone can explain to me. I have alot of output drops on an interface that is facing a AP. So on switch, port fa0/7 an AP is connected. The switch has been configured with the default CNA profile. Can you help me, i need to tune up the QOS, but can someone explain a little in depth what is happening ?

Thank you.

I guess the problem is here srr-queue bandwidth share 10 10 60 20, that i should change from 20 to more, but can you please explain why this is happening only here ?
I have a lot of switches configured the same, and i do not see any drops.

Any help with this ? Do you need more information ?

I'm not too hot with L2 QoS myself, but I'll try to help you out.

What queue are you seeing drops in? Are you running the default queue maps?

My guess is the bold lines are the problem. I have packets comming with CoS 0(data traffic) and those are attributed 20% of the bandwith. Then i have "priority-queue out" applied on the interface, that means that the priority queue(1) will get 100% of the bandwidth until it gets clear.

@networker050184
As you see, Queue 4 has the output drops.

The thing is that, i do not know why this happens only on this switch. I have the same configuration on other switches, but i do not see the same results.


Thank you.
