COPS Warning Message
If COPS has been enabled globally or enabled on a port, executing the global automatic QoS command
or the port-specific automatic QoS command changes the policy source to local and a warning message
displays.
This example shows that if the port-based command is successful, the port-based policy setting is
changed to local as follows:
Console> (enable)
set port qos 4/1 autoqos voip ciscosoftphone
Warning: QoS policy changed to local for port 4/1.
Port 4/1 ingress QoS configured for ciscosoftphone.
It is recommended to execute the "set qos autoqos" global command if not executed
previously.
This example for the global command shows that if the global QoS policy is COPS before the global
automatic QoS command is executed, a warning message displays as follows:
Console> (enable)
set qos autoqos
........
Warning: QoS policy source changed to local.
All ingress and egress QoS scheduling parameters configured on all ports.
CoS to DSCP, DSCP to COS and IP Precedence to DSCP maps configured.
Global QoS configured, port specific autoqos recommended:
set port qos <mod/port> autoqos trust [cos|dscp]
set port qos <mod/port> autoqos voip [ciscoipphone|ciscosoftphone]
Console> (enable)
CDP Warning
When executing the port-specific automatic QoS command with the
ciscoipphone
keyword without the
trust option, the trust-device feature is enabled. The trust-device feature is dependent on CDP. If CDP is
not enabled or not running version 2, a warning message displays as follows:
Console> (enable)
set port qos 4/1 autoqos voip ciscoipphone
Warning: CDP is disabled or CDP version 1 is in use. Ensure that CDP version 2 is
enabled globally, and also ensure that CDP is enabled on the port(s) you wish to configure
autoqos on.
Port 4/1 ingress QoS configured for ciscoipphone.
It is recommended to execute the "set qos autoqos" global command if not executed
previously.
Console> (enable)
Out of Policer Names
When executing the port-specific automatic QoS command with the
ciscosoftphone
keyword, two
policer instances are created and named with the following strings:
•
POLICE_SOFTPHONE-DSCP46-x-y
•
POLICE_SOFTPHONE-DSCP26-x-y
where x is the module number and y is the port number of the
mod/port
combination that is specified
with the
ciscosoftphone
keyword.
