Hi Scott

If the question is to restrict the voice bandwidth out of a port to 25% of the 
total then the configuration you have will work.  If however you enable the 
priority queue out then the shape command no longer affects queue 1 and there 
will be no restriction on the amount of traffic through the priority queue 
unless your other traffic fills the link.  I did a test on a 3750 where I had a 
similar configuration to your but with the priority queue enabled.  I could 
send 1 Gbps with voice traffic through the interface, only voice traffic was 
sent.  When I removed the priority out command the amount of voice traffic 
dropped to 25% of the bandwidth.  I hope this helps.

Regards

Peter

Bump - anyone have thoughts on this one?

Subject: [OSL | CCIE_Voice] Adjust 3750 Egress Priority Queue Bandwidth


 I wanted some thoughts on how others would handle a request to tweak the 
amount of bandwidth availble to an egress priority queue on a 3750.  So for 
example a request to allocate 25% of available bandwidth for switchports 
connected to IP phones on the 3750.

I have heard suggestions to handle this in the following manner - this is 
assuming auto qos voip trust cisco-phone has been run on the port already:

interface fa 1/0/2
  no priority-queue out
  srr-queue bandwidth shape 4 0 0 0
  srr-queue bandwidth share 0 33 33 33

But I'm struggling to see that this meets the requirement.  In this 
configuration we would be enabling shaping of queue 1 and assigning it 25% of 
available bandwidth.  Then assigning remaining bandwidth equally to the 
remaining three queues.  But this does not appear to be meeting the requirement 
of assigning the priority queue 25% of the bandwidth.  We would be assigning 
the queue that RTP traffic is placed in by default 25% of total bandwidth but 
the initial no priority queue out command technically disables a strict 
priority queue and thus it does not seem to fit the requirement.

Thoughts?  While I struggle to see the disablement of the priority queue as 
strictly meeting the requirement - I also find no explicit means to allocate 
the priority queue a strict amount of bandwidth (I.e. the equal if the ingress 
queue command - mls qos srr-queue input bandwidth 75 25 that could be used to 
meet this requirement for default priority ingress queue 1.  How about skipping 
the initial no priority queue-out command but only issuing the shape and share 
commands as specified above?  Wouldn't leaving the priority queue enabled and 
assigning it a shape value of 25% (1/4) satsify the requirement better?

Thanks
Scott
