Configuring DSCP Maps
This section describes how to configure the DSCP maps. It contains this configuration information:
•
Configuring the CoS-to-DSCP Map, page 20-39
•
Configuring the IP-Precedence-to-DSCP Map, page 20-40
•
Configuring the Policed-DSCP Map, page 20-41
•
Configuring the DSCP-to-CoS Map, page 20-42
•
Configuring the DSCP-to-DSCP-Mutation Map, page 20-43
All the maps, except the DSCP-to-DSCP-mutation map, are globally defined and are applied to all
ports.You can have multiple DSCP-to-DSCP-mutation maps and apply them to different Gigabit-capable
Ethernet ports. However, on 10/100 Ethernet ports, you can attach only one DSCP-to-DSCP-mutation
map to a group of twelve ports.
Configuring the CoS-to-DSCP Map
You use the CoS-to-DSCP map to map CoS values in incoming packets to a DSCP value that QoS uses
internally to represent the priority of the traffic.
Table 20-3
shows the default CoS-to-DSCP map.
If these values are not appropriate for your network, you need to modify them.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to modify the CoS-to-DSCP map:
To return to the default map, use the no mls qos cos-dscp global configuration command.

Command
Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
mls qos map cos-dscp dscp1...dscp8
Modify the CoS-to-DSCP map.
For dscp1...dscp8, enter 8 DSCP values that correspond to CoS values 0
to 7. Separate each DSCP value with a space.
The DSCP range is 0 to 63.
Step 3
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
show mls qos maps cos-dscp
Verify your entries.
Step 5
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
