338 CHAPTER 16: CONFIGURING QUALITY OF SERVICE
(To display a MAP’s CoS mappings and queue usage statistics, see
“Displaying MAP Forwarding Queue Statistics” on page 349.)
Figure 28 shows an example of end-to-end QoS in a 3Com network. In
this example, voice traffic is prioritized based on WMM. This example
assumes that the QoS mappings are set to their default values.
Figure 28 WMM QoS in a 3Com Network
Figure 28 shows the following process:
1 A user sends voice traffic from a WMM VoIP phone. The phone marks the
CoS field of the packet with service type 7, indicating that the packet is
for high priority (voice) traffic.
2 MAP A receives the voice packet and classifies the packet by mapping the
service type in the 802.11 header to an internal CoS value. In this
example, the service type is 7 and maps to internal CoS 7.
