Catalyst 3560 Doubt - QoS Specifications

[b.petronio]

Hello all,

I've consulted the following url "http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps5718/ps5528/product_data_sheet09186a00801f3d7d.html", concerned about QoS features to Cisco Catalyst 3560G-48TS-S and Cisco Catalyst 3560G-48PS-S.

Did this two equipment, perform Random Early Detect (RED), Weigh Random Early Detect (WRED), Deficit Round Robin ?

I couldn't find any documentation about this features related to this two switch's.

Could anyone help me ?

Best Regards,

Bruno Petronio

Bruno,

Probably the best two guides are the following:

Cisco Product Reference Guide

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/qrg/index.html

Cisco Catalyst Switch Guide - better for comparions of switch platforms

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/switches/ps5718/ps708/networking_solutions_products_genericcontent0900aecd805f0955.pdf

You can also use the feature navigator to find this information:

http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/CFN/jsp/index.jsp

It looks like the 3560 doesn't do RED, WRED, or DRR.

RED and WRED look to be exclusive to ROUTERS (6500, 4500, ISR, etc.).

The 3560 does do Weighted Tail Drop and Shaped Round Robin.

Hey Bruno

Check out the configuration guide for the 3560 it will tell you what's available far as QoS or any other features.
