QoS how to setup

[cisco.bml]

Hi there,

We are planning to setup QoS on our network.Its basicaly a windows network enviroment.We have 2 branch office connected to Data Center over 2MB private lease line. These lease lines are connected to a trunk port on cisco catalyst 4948 switch, in which we have setup Vlan's and routing aswell. And cisco catalyst 2960 switches are placed on each branch office configured with there respective Vlan's.I have attach a sample diagram. I want to setup Qos so that I can prioritise protocols according to our needs. Is this possible to do using switches? I have seen many documents and tutorials, but they all are done using cisco routers. I want to do the QoS base on protocols like telnet seesion,http,active directory(kerberos) and soon. Can this be done, if so how? Or else is there a better design?

Hi,

of course it can be done on switches.
