Re: Queuing Question [7:56139]

2002-10-24 Thread Michael Williams
Just a related note.  You can convert any number of the top queues in Custom
queueing over to Priority queues.  (i.e. you could configure queues 1 - 8 as
priority queues, with the remainder being treated as custom queues only
after queues 1-8 have been serviced).  So it's not surprising that there
would be a Q0 for system traffic that's given strict priority.

I found this on Cisco's website:

Q: If custom queuing has been configured, do routing protocol updates such
as LSAs for OSPF and broadcasts for RIP and IGRP get queued in the special
system queue 0, or do they get queued in the IP queue?

A: In addition to low level keepalives, some protocols whose traffic is
originated by the router use queue 0 for their time critical packets.
Specifically:

ISO IGRP hellos
ESIS hellos
ISIS hellos
DECnet hellos
SLARP address resolution
EIGRP hellos
OSPF hellos
Router syslog messages
Spanning tree keepalives

>From what I've read, your assumptions are right in that queue gets EMPTIED
before the round robin starts.

As for what goes into queue 0, all I can find is "router system traffic like
keepalives."

Yes, I believe this is what occurs.  The catch is that you (the engineer)
can't configure what goes into Queue 0, which leads to *my* question about CQ
- what goes into Q0?  I mean, if I leave CDP running, do all my CDP packets
go
into Q0?  Do SNMP traps go into Q0?  I'm basically looking for a *list* of
protocols that automatically get assigned to Q0.  Can anyone offer any
insight?

Thanks,

BJ

Queuing Question [7:56139]

2002-10-23 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi,

In custom queuing, there are 16 user customisable queues plus 1 system queue
(0).

All the documentation I have read states a variation of the following
sentence:- "The system queue is served before all other queues".
 
I am sorta confused by this.

My question is this ... 
(1) Since there are no configuration parameters for queue list 0, does
custom queuing sort of have a 'priority' queing mechanism for Queue 0, in
that Queue 0 will be completed 'drained' before the normal round-robin
procedures occur for Queues 1 - 16, or
(2) Does Queue 0 also take part in this round-robin mechanism in that since
Queue 0 is first, it gets served first, but is not allowed to hog the
bandwidth and only a certain amount of packets are sent before the next
queue is served.

My guess is that that Queue 0 will have to be completely empty before the
other queues are serviced by custom queuing

Thanks for your insight
