This chapter contains the following sections:
The configurable Cisco NX-OS quality of service (QoS) features allow you to classify the network traffic, prioritize the traffic flow, and provide congestion avoidance.
The default QoS configuration on the device provides lossless service for Fibre Channel and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) traffic and best-effort service for Ethernet traffic. QoS can be configured to provide additional classes of service for Ethernet traffic. Cisco NX-OS QoS features are configured using Cisco Modular QoS CLI (MQC).
Standard Ethernet is a best-effort medium which means that it lacks any form of flow control. In the event of congestion or collisions, Ethernet will drop packets. The higher level protocols detect the missing data and retransmit the dropped packets.
Fibre Channel requires a reliable transport system that guarantees the delivery of every packet. To properly support FCoE, Ethernet has been enhanced with a priority flow control (PFC) mechanism to prevent congestion.
The FCoE QoS must be configured either if native FC or FCoE or FC and FCoE are in use. The FCoE QoS must be added even if Ethernet is not configured on the switch.

The Cisco Modular QoS CLI (MQC) provides a standard set of commands for configuring QoS.
You can use MQC to define additional traffic classes and to configure QoS policies for the whole system and for individual interfaces. Configuring a QoS policy with MQC consists of the following steps:
MQC provides two command types to define traffic classes and policies:
Defines a class map that represents a class of traffic based on packet-matching criteria. Class maps are referenced in policy maps.
The class map classifies incoming packets based on matching criteria, such as the IEEE 802.1p class of service (CoS) value. Unicast and multicast packets are classified.
Defines a policy map that represents a set of policies to be applied on a class-by-class basis to class maps.
The policy map defines a set of actions to take on the associated traffic class, such as limiting the bandwidth or dropping packets.
You define the following class-map and policy-map object types when you create them:
Defines MQC objects that you can use for system level related actions.
Defines MQC objects that you can use for classification.
Defines MQC objects that you can use for queuing and scheduling.
Note | The qos type is the default for the class-map and policy-map commands, but not for the service-policy which requires that you specify an explicit type. |
You can attach policies to interfaces or EtherChannels as well as at the global system level by using the service-policy command.
You can view all or individual values for MQC objects by using the show class-map and show policy-map commands.
An MQC target is an entity (such as an Ethernet interface) that represents a flow of packets. A service policy associates a policy map with an MQC target and specifies whether to apply the policy on incoming or outgoing packets. This mapping enables the configuration of QoS policies such as marking, bandwidth allocation, buffer allocation, and so on.
The system qos is a type of MQC target. You use a service policy to associate a policy map with the system qos target. A system qos policy applies to all interfaces on the switch unless a specific interface has an overriding service-policy configuration. The system qos policies are used to define system classes, the classes of traffic across the entire switch, and their attributes. To ensure QoS consistency (and for ease of configuration), the device distributes the system class parameter values to all its attached network adapters using the Data Center Bridging Exchange (DCBX) protocol.
If service policies are configured at the interface level, the interface-level policy always takes precedence over system class configuration or defaults.
On the Cisco Nexus device, a system class is uniquely identified by a qos-group value. A total of six system classes are supported. Two of the six system classes are defaults and are always present on the device. Up to four additional system classes can be created by the administrator.
The device provides the following system classes:
Drop system class
By default, the software classifies all unicast and multicast Ethernet traffic into the default drop system class. This class is identified by qos-group 0.
This class is created automatically when the system starts up (the class is named class-default in the CLI). You cannot delete this class and you cannot change the match criteria associated with the default class.
Note | If congestion occurs when data traffic (class-default) and FCoE traffic (class-fcoe) is flowing at the same time, then the queuing percentage configuration starts up. The FCoE traffic is a no-drop class and does not get policed to the bandwidth assigned as per the queuing class. FCoE traffic cannot be dropped as it expects a lossless medium. When congestion occurs PFC frames are generated at FCoE ingress interfaces and dropping only occurs on the data traffic, even if data traffic is below the assigned bandwidth. For optimizing the throughput you can spread the data traffic load for a longer duration. |
FCoE system class (For the Cisco Nexus 5500 Series device)
For the Cisco Nexus 5500 Series device, the class-fcoe is not automatically created. Before you enable FCoE on the Cisco Nexus 5500 Series device running Cisco NX-OS Release 5.0(2)N1(1), you must enable class-fcoe in the three types of qos policies:
type qos policy maps
type network-qos policy map (attached to system qos)
type queuing policy map (class-fcoe must be configured with a non-zero bandwidth percentage for input queuing policy maps.
When class-fcoe is not included in the qos policies, vFC interfaces do not come up and increased drops occur.
Note | The Cisco Nexus 5500 Series device supports five user-defined classes and one default drop system class. |
The device supports a number of policy types. You create class maps in the policy types.
Before you enable FCoE on the Cisco Nexus device, you must enable class-fcoe in the three types of qos policies (network QoS, queuing, and QoS) by entering the type qos policy maps command and applying at least one FCoE QoS policy under system QoS.
The following QoS parameters can be specified for each type of class:
Type network-qos—A network-qos policy is used to instantiate system classes and associate parameters with those classes that are of system-wide scope.
Classification—The traffic that matches this class are as follows:
Policy—The actions that are performed on the matching traffic are as follows:
Note | A network-qos policy can only be attached to the system QoS target. |
MTU—The MTU that needs to be enforced for the traffic that is mapped to a system class. Each system class has a default MTU and the system class MTU is configurable.
Multicast optimization—This configuration specifies if the performance of multicast traffic mapped to this class will be optimized.
Pause no-drop—No drop specifies lossless service for the system class. Drop specifies that tail drop is used (arriving packets are dropped when the queue reaches its allocated size) when a queue for this system class is full.
An additional parameter pfc-cos can be configured. This parameter identifies the class of service (CoS) values to assert priority flow control (PFC) when traffic for a no-drop system class is not mapped based purely on CoS experiences congestion.
You can change the buffer for the no-drop class.
Queue Limit—This configuration specifies the number of buffers that need to be reserved to the queues of this system class. This option is not configurable for no-drop system classes.
Type queuing—A type queuing policy is used to define the scheduling characteristics of the queues associated with system classes.
Note | Some configuration parameters when applied to an EtherChannel are not reflected on the configuration of the member ports. |
Classification—The traffic that matches this class are as follows:
Policy—The actions that are performed on the matching traffic are as follows:
Note | These policies can be attached to the system qos target or to any interface. The output queuing policy is used to configure output queues on the device associated with system classes. The input queuing policy is used to configure scheduling for queues in the CNA. The input queuing policy parameters are signaled to the CNA over the DCBX protocol. |
Type qos—A type QoS policy is used to classify traffic that is based on various Layer 2, Layer 3, and Layer 4 fields in the frame and to map it to system classes.
Note | Some configuration parameters when applied to an EtherChannel are not reflected on the configuration of the member ports. |
Classification—The traffic that matches this class are as follows:
Access Control Lists—Classifies traffic based on the criteria in existing ACLs.
Class of Service—Matches traffic based on the CoS field in the frame header.
DSCP—Classifies traffic based on the Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value in the DiffServ field of the IP header.
IP Real Time Protocol—Classifies traffic on the port numbers used by real-time applications.
Precedence—Classifies traffic based on the precedence value in the type of service (ToS) field of the IP header.
Protocol—Classifies traffic based on the IPv4 Protocol field or the IPv6 Next Header field of the IP header.
Policy—The actions that are performed on the matching traffic are as follows:
Note | This policy can be attached to the system or to any interface. It applies to input traffic only. |
The Cisco Nexus device is a Layer 2 switch, and it does not support packet fragmentation. A maximum transmission unit (MTU) configuration mismatch between ingress and egress interfaces may result in packets being truncated.
When configuring MTU, follow these guidelines:
MTU is specified per system class. The system class allows a different MTU for each class of traffic but they must be consistent on all ports across the entire switch. You cannot configure MTU on the interfaces.
Fibre Channel and FCoE payload MTU is 2158 bytes across the switch. As a result, the rxbufsize for Fibre Channel interfaces is fixed at 2158 bytes. If the Cisco Nexus device receives an rxbufsize from a peer that is different than 2158 bytes, it will fail the exchange of link parameters (ELP) negotiation and not bring the link up.
Enter the system jumbomtu command to define the upper bound of any MTU in the system. The system jumbo MTU has a default value of 9216 bytes. The minimum MTU is 2158 bytes and the maximum MTU is 9216 bytes.
The system class MTU sets the MTU for all packets in the class. The system class MTU cannot be configured larger than the global jumbo MTU.
The FCoE system class (for Fibre Channel and FCoE traffic) has a default MTU of 2158 bytes. This value cannot be modified.
The switch sends the MTU configuration to network adapters that support DCBX.
Note | MTU is not supported in Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE) mode for DCBX. |
The trust boundary is enforced by the incoming interface as follows:
All Fibre Channel and virtual Fibre Channel interfaces are automatically classified into the FCoE system class.
By default, all Ethernet interfaces are trusted interfaces.The 802.1p CoS and DSCP are preserved unless the marking is configured. There is no default CoS to queue and DSCP to queue mapping. You can define and apply a policy to create these mappings. By default, without a user defined policy, all traffic is assigned to the default queue.
Any packet that is not tagged with an 802.1p CoS value is classified into the default drop system class. If the untagged packet is sent over a trunk, it is tagged with the default untagged CoS value, which is zero.
You can override the default untagged CoS value for an Ethernet interface or port channel.
You can override the default untagged CoS value for an Ethernet interface or a port channel interface using the untagged cos cos-value command.
After the system applies the untagged CoS value, QoS functions the same as for a packet that entered the system tagged with the CoS value.
You can associate an ingress policy map with an Ethernet interface to guarantee bandwidth for the specified traffic class or to specify a priority queue.
The ingress policy is applied in the adapter to all outgoing traffic that matches the specified CoS value.
When you configure an ingress policy for an interface, the switch sends the configuration data to the adapter. If the adapter does not support the DCBX protocol or the ingress policy type-length-value (TLV), the ingress policy configuration is ignored.
You use classification to partition traffic into classes. You classify the traffic based on the packet property (CoS field) or the packet header fields that include IP precedence, Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), and Layer 2 to Layer 4 parameters. The values used to classify traffic are called match criteria.
Traffic that fails to match any class is assigned to a default class of traffic called class-default.
You can associate an egress policy map with an Ethernet interface to guarantee the bandwidth for the specified traffic class or to configure the egress queues.
The bandwidth allocation limit applies to all traffic on the interface including any FCoE traffic.
Each Ethernet interface supports up to eight queues, one for each system class. The queues have the following default configuration:
In addition to these queues, control traffic that is destined for the CPU uses strict priority queues. These queues are not accessible for user configuration.
FCoE traffic (traffic that maps to the FCoE system class) is assigned a queue. This queue uses weighted round-robin (WRR) scheduling with 50 percent of the bandwidth.
Standard Ethernet traffic in the default drop system class is assigned a queue. This queue uses WRR scheduling with 100 percent of the bandwidth.
If you add a system class, a queue is assigned to the class. You must reconfigure the bandwidth allocation on all affected interfaces. Bandwidth is not dedicated automatically to user-defined system classes.
You can configure one strict priority queue. This queue is serviced before all other queues except the control traffic queue (which carries control rather than data traffic).
On the Cisco Nexus device, the packet buffer per port is 640KB.
On the Nexus 5500 platform, the packet buffer per port is 640KB. The Nexus 5548P, Nexus 5548UP, and the Nexus 5596UP switch share the same buffer architecture. The Nexus 5500 platform implements Virtual Output Queueing (VOQ) and ingress buffer architecture with the majority of the buffer allocated at ingress. The architecture allows the switch to store packets at multiple ingress ports when there are multiple ports sending traffic to one egress port which causes congestion.
The following default buffer allocations per port exist for the Cisco Nexus 5500 Platform:
Traffic Class | Ingress Buffer (KB) |
---|---|
Class-fcoe | 79.360 |
User-defined no-drop with an MTU less than 2240 | 79.360 |
User-defined no-drop class with an MTU greater than 2240 | 90.204 |
Tail drop traffic class | 22.720 |
Class-default | All of the remaining buffer (470 with default QoS configuration) |
The default buffer allocation varies depending on the type of class. For example, if you create a regular tail drop traffic class the default allocation is 22.7KB, unless you specify a larger size using the queue-limit command.
To increase the ingress buffer space available to a user-created qos-group, from a network-qos policy-map, use the queue-limit command.
In addition to ingress buffer allocated for each user-created qos-group there is an additional 28.6KB buffer required at egress for each qos-group.
With the default QoS configuration, all of the available buffer (470KB) is allocated to the class-default. When you create a new qos-group, the buffer required for the new qos-group will be taken away from class-default. The amount of buffer that is left for class-default equals 470 minus the ingress buffer used by other qos-groups minus 28.6KB and times the number of qos-groups.
Note | Each new class requires an additional 28.6KB, so the exact amount of buffer that is left in the class default equals 478 minus the buffer used by other qos-groups minus 18.880KB times the number of qos-groups. |
The default QoS policy for the Cisco Nexus device does not create class-fcoe and does not reserve buffer and qos-group for FCoE traffic.
The show queuing interface command can display the amount of ingress buffer allocated for each qos-group
The following buffering limits exist for the Cisco Nexus 5000 Platform:
The following default buffer allocations per port exist for the Cisco Nexus 5000 Platform:
Traffic Class | Ingress Buffer (KB) |
---|---|
Class-fcoe | 76.8 |
User-defined no-drop class of service with an MTU less than 2240 | 76.8 |
User-defined no-drop class of service with an MTU greater than 2240 | 81.9 |
Tail drop class of service | 20.4 |
Class-default | All of the remaining buffer (243.2KB with the default QoS configuration) |
The default buffer allocation varies depending on the type of class. For example, if you create a regular tail drop traffic class the default allocation is 22.7Kb, unless you specify a larger size using the queue-limit command.
To increase the buffer space available to a user-created qos-group, from a network-qos policy-map, use the queue-limit command.
All of the available buffer is allocated to the class-default. When you define a new qos-group, the required buffer for the new qos-group is taken from the class-default buffer.
Note | Each new class requires an additional 18.880KB, so the exact amount of buffer that is left in the class default is 243.2KB minus the buffer used by other qos-groups minus 18.880KB times the number of qos-groups. |
The default QoS configuration for the Nexus 5000 platform creates the class-fcoe and class-default.
The show queuing interface command displays the configured qos-group and the ingress buffer allocated for each qos-group.
By default, all multicast Ethernet traffic is classified into the default drop system class. This traffic is serviced by one multicast queue.
Optimized multicasting allows use of the unused multicast queues to achieve better throughput for multicast frames. If optimized multicast is enabled for the default drop system class, the system will use all six queues to service the multicast traffic. When optimized multicast is enabled for the default drop system class, all six queues are given equal priority.
If you define a new system class, a dedicated multicast queue is assigned to that class. This queue is removed from the set of queues available for the optimized multicast class.
The system provides two predefined class maps for matching broadcast or multicast traffic. These class maps are convenient for creating separate policy maps for unicast and multicast traffic.
The predefined class maps are as follows:
The class-all-flood class map matches all broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast traffic (across all CoS values). If you configure a policy map with the class-all-flood class map, the system automatically uses all available multicast queues for this traffic.
The class-ip-multicast class map matches all IP multicast traffic. Policy options configured in this class map apply to traffic across all Ethernet CoS values. For example, if you enable optimized multicast for this class, the IP multicast traffic for all CoS values is optimized.
Note | If you configure either of these predefined class maps as a no-drop class, the priority flow control capability is applied across all Ethernet CoS values. In this configuration, pause will be applied to unicast and multicast traffic. |
The egress queues are not configurable for native Fibre Channel interfaces. Two queues are available as follows:
The device automatically applies QoS policies to traffic that is directed to the CPU to ensure that the CPU is not flooded with packets. Control traffic, such as bridge protocol data units (BPDU) frames, is given higher priority to ensure delivery.
To maintain optimal switch performance, follow these guidelines when configuring system classes and policies:
Switch resources (such as buffers, virtual output queues, and egress queues) are partitioned based on the default and user-defined system classes. Cisco NX-OS automatically adjusts the resource allocation to accommodate the configured system classes.
If less than four Ethernet classes are defined, up to two of these classes can be configured as no-drop classes. If more than three Ethernet classes are defined, only one of these classes can be configured as a no-drop class. The default drop class is counted as an Ethernet class.
If priority flow control is enabled on an Ethernet interface, pause will never be applied to traffic with a drop system class. PFC does not apply pause to drop classes and the link-level pause feature is never enabled on an interface with PFC.
All FCoE traffic on an Ethernet interface is mapped to one no-drop system class. By default, this class is associated with CoS value 3, although you can configure a different value. If you configure standard Ethernet traffic to use the same CoS value as FCoE, this traffic is still mapped to the FCoE system class and the switch will apply priority flow control on the FCoE CoS value.
When a Cisco Nexus 2148T Fabric Extender is connected and in use, data traffic should never be marked with a CoS value of 7. CoS 7 is reserved for control traffic transiting the Fabric Extender.
On the Cisco Nexus 5548 Switch, the FCoE class-fcoe system class is not enabled by default in the QoS configuration. Before enabling FCoE, you must include class-fcoe in each of the three policy types (network-qos, queuing, and qos).
Note | Type qos policies can be activated only on Cisco Nexus 5000 Series interfaces and Cisco Nexus 2000 Series Fabric Extender interfaces. Type qos policies on Fabric Extender fabric interfaces or Fabric Extender fabric EtherChannel interfaces are ineffective, though the Cisco NX-OS CLI does not reject the configuration. We recommend that you do not configure type qos policy-maps on Fabric Extender fabric interfaces or Fabric Extender fabric EtherChannel interfaces to avoid wasting hardware resources. |
When configuring EtherChannels, note the following guidelines:
Configuring System Classes
You can create or modify a class map with the class-map command. The class map is a named object that represents a class of traffic. In the class map, you specify a set of match criteria for classifying the packets. You can then reference class maps in policy maps.
Note | The class map type default is type qos and its match criteria default is match-all. |

You can classify traffic by matching packets based on an existing access control list (ACL). Traffic is classified by the criteria defined in the ACL. The permit and deny ACL keywords are ignored in the matching; even if a match criteria in the access-list has a deny action, it is still used for matching for this class.

switch(config-cmap-qos)# match access-group name acl-01
Use the show class-map command to display the ACL class-map configuration:
switch# show class-map class_acl
You can classify traffic based on the class of service (CoS) in the IEEE 802.1Q header. This 3-bit field is defined in IEEE 802.1p to support QoS traffic classes. CoS is encoded in the high order 3 bits of the VLAN ID Tag field and is referred to as user_priority.
Note | The Cisco Nexus 2148 Fabric Extender does not support frames with the dot1p vlan 0 tag. |
If a system class is configured with a no-drop function, the match cos command serves an additional purpose. The switch sends the CoS value to the adapter so that the adapter will apply a PFC pause for this CoS value.
The FCoE system class has a default CoS value of 3. You can add a match cos configuration to the FCoE system class to set a different CoS value. A PFC pause will be applied to traffic that matches the new value.

The IP Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) is a transport protocol for real-time applications that transmits data such as audio or video and is defined by RFC 3550. Although RTP does not use a common TCP or UDP port, you typically configure RTP to use ports 16384 to 32767. UDP communications use an even port and the next higher odd port is used for RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) communications.
You can classify based on UDP port ranges, which are likely to target applications using RTP.

The policy-map command is used to create a named object that represents a set of policies that are to be applied to a set of traffic classes.
The device provides two default system classes: a no-drop class for lossless service (class-fcoe) and a drop class for best-effort service (class-default). You can define up to four additional system classes for Ethernet traffic.
The following predefined policy maps are used as default service policies:
network-qos: default-nq-policy
Input qos: default-in-policy
Input queuing: default-in-policy
Output queuing: default-out-policy
service-policy type qos input fcoe-default-in-policy
service-policy type queuing input fcoe-default-in-policy
service-policy type queuing output fcoe-default-out-policy
service-policy type network-qos fcoe-default-nq-policy
When class-fcoe is not included in the qos policies, vFC interfaces do not come up and increased drops occur.
You need to create a policy map to specify the policies for any user-defined class. In the policy map, you can configure the QoS parameters for each class. You can use the same policy map to modify the configuration of the default classes.
The device distributes all the policy-map configuration values to the attached network adapters.
Before creating the policy map, define a class map for each new system class.

You can enable the jumbo Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) for the whole switch by setting the MTU to its maximum size (9216 bytes) in the policy map for the default Ethernet system class (class-default).
For Layer 3 routing on Cisco Nexus devices, you need to configure the MTU on the Layer 3 interfaces (SVIs and physical interfaces with IP addresses) in addition to the global QoS configuration below.
This example shows how to configure the default Ethernet system class to support the jumbo MTU:
switch(config)# policy-map type network-qos jumbo switch(config-pmap-nq)# class type network-qos class-default switch(config-pmap-c-nq)# mtu 9216 switch(config-pmap-c-nq)# exit switch(config-pmap-nq)# exit switch(config)# system qos switch(config-sys-qos)# service-policy type network-qos jumbo
Note | The system jumbomtu command defines the maximum MTU size for the switch. However, jumbo MTU is supported only for system classes that have MTU configured. |
On the Cisco Nexus device, traffic is classified into one of eight QoS groups. The MTU is configured at the QoS group level. By default, all Ethernet traffic is in QoS group 0. To verify the jumbo MTU for Ethernet traffic, use the show queueing interface ethernet slot/chassis_number command and find "HW MTU" in the command output to check the MTU for QoS group 0. The value should be 9216.
The show interface command always displays 1500 as the MTU. Because the Cisco Nexus device supports different MTUs for different QoS groups, it is not possible to represent the MTU as one value on a per interface level.
Note | For Layer 3 routing on the Cisco Nexus device, you must verify the MTU on the Layer 3 interfaces (SVIs and physical interfaces with IP addresses) in addition to the global QoS MTU. You can verify the Layer 3 MTU by using the show interface vlan vlan_number or show interface slot/chassis_number. |

Configuring QoS on Interfaces
Any incoming packet not tagged with an 802.1p CoS value is assigned the default untagged CoS value of zero (which maps to the default Ethernet drop system class). You can override the default untagged CoS value for an Ethernet or EtherChannel interface.
On a Cisco Nexus device, you can configure a type qos policy map and untagged CoS on the same interface.
1. switch# configure terminal
2.
switch(config)#
interface {ethernet [chassis/]slot/port |
port-channel
channel-number}
3.
switch(config-if)#
untagged cos

Command or Action | Purpose | |
---|---|---|
Step 1 | switch# configure terminal |
Enters global configuration mode. |
Step 2 |
switch(config)#
interface {ethernet [chassis/]slot/port |
port-channel
channel-number}
|
Enters the configuration mode for the specified interface or port channel. |
Step 3 |
switch(config-if)#
untagged cos
cos-value
|
Configures the untagged CoS value. Values can be from 1 to 7. |
The following example shows how to set the CoS value to 4 for untagged frames received on an interface:
switch# configure terminal switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/2 switch(config-if)# untagged cos 4
An input qos policy is a service policy applied to incoming traffic on an Ethernet interface for classification. For type queuing, the output policy is applied to all outgoing traffic that matches the specified class. When you configure an input queuing policy on an interface or EtherChannel, the switch sends the configuration data to the adapter using the DCBX protocol.
Note | Type qos policies can be activated only on Cisco Nexus device interfaces and Cisco Nexus Fabric Extender interfaces. Type qos policies on Fabric Extender fabric interfaces or Fabric Extender fabric EtherChannel interfaces are ineffective, though the Cisco NX-OS CLI does not reject the configuration. We recommend that you do not configure type qos policy-maps on Fabric Extender fabric interfaces or Fabric Extender fabric EtherChannel interfaces to avoid wasting hardware resources. |

You can disable slow port pruning on multicast packets.
An interface on the Cisco Nexus 5500 Series device can become congested when it receives excessive multicast traffic or when the mixed unicast and multicast traffic rate exceeds the port bandwidth. When multiple interfaces receive the same multicast flow and one or more ports experience congestion, the slow port prunning feature allows the switch to drop only the multicast packets for the congested port. This feature is turned on by default. To turn the slow port pruning feature off, enter the hardware multicast disable-slow-port-pruning command.
1. switch# configure terminal
2. switch(config)# hardware multicast disable-slow-port-pruning
3. switch(config)# no hardware multicast disable-slow-port-pruning
Command or Action | Purpose | |
---|---|---|
Step 1 | switch# configure terminal |
