I never got a clear answer so I tested it with a traffic generator to make sure it could handle the load with QOS markings respected. Here are configurations on the ME3800 that worked for me. policy-map standard5 class voice priority class voice-control bandwidth remaining percent 4 class scavenger bandwidth remaining percent 4 class video-conference bandwidth remaining percent 13 class class-default random-detect dscp-based random-detect exponential-weighting-constant 9 bandwidth remaining percent 79 interface GigabitEthernet0/23 description XXXXXXX In other words, no qos commands needed on the interface switchport mode trunk speed nonegotiate service-policy output ES1 BIG surprise when installing: I used the Ten gig port to connect to a test OPT-E-MAN cloud during testing. It worked fine. Connecting to the AT&T OPT-E-MAN switch during the install, the Ten gig port coudn't negotiate with the AT&T switch. I had to use a gigabit port. It has been working reliably in a network with significant voice traffic for 1.5 years with no problems, so the old commands aren't needed. DSCP is trusted automatically. I agree with your irritation. An upgrade guide would have been nice.

After working with TAC I found out that for VPLS to recover from changes, you need to have mpls ldp graceful-restart configured on all devices using VPLS. If the command is entered after VPLS connections are already running, you will need to enter clear mpls ldp neighbor x.x.x.x or *. That will restart the ldp session which in turn will enable graceful restart for that session. Graceful restart handles changes for VPLS.

We upgraded from sup 720s running to SUPT2s running VSS with VPLS and the VCs wouldn't pass traffic so we had to roll back. I am wondering if our procedure for the upgrade might have caused the problem. We have tested VPLS failing over on the SUP2Ts in the lab and it works great, however in the production network we had trouble. When we upgraded from HSRP to VSS, we had a requirement to keep the outages brief. To achieve that we: 1) shut down all ports on the active HSRP switch (Switch 1). This was because the VPLS configuration was on the standby switch (Switch 2). 2) powered down switch 1 and installed the VSS configured SUP2T with all ports shut down. 3) waited until all modules were okay. 4) using scripts shut down all ports on switch 2, and immediately did a no shut on switch 1. 5) powered down switch 2 and installed the VSS configured SUP2T with all ports shut down 6) did a no shut on all ports on switch 2 This allowed us to have a minimal outage in the network. IP routing came back just fine. After we upgraded all VPLS VCs showed that they were UP, but they showed one-way traffic and remote macs weren't learned. I was wondering if this upgrade method somehow confused MPLS labeling or something in VPLS to cause it not to work? Maybe some tables related to related to MPLS or VPLS weren't flushed out due to the quick switch over?

We have a server connected to a 3560 switch which in turn connects to 6500s. The gateway interface is on the 6500. We will be changing the 6500s so the mac address for the gateway will change, however the IP address will remain the same. As we change out the 6500s the uplink connections to the 3560 will go down. This will flush the old mac address from the 3560. When the 3560 removes a MAC address does it update servers so they have to relearn the correct MAC address?

system mtu routing 1500 Is there a replacement command for this? MLS QOS commands not accepted. Has the ME3800 been designed so these buffers don't need to be adjusted? in the policy map: class class-default random-detect dscp-based not accepted. Is there a work around? random-detect exponential-weighting-constant 9 not accepted. Is there a work around? On the Gigabit ports: SSR-QUEUE command is not accepted. Again, not a problem due to the design? priority queue not accepted. Same reason? On the Tengig interface: tx-ring-limit 2 still needed? If so, what is the recommended value? tx-queue-limit 2 still needed? If so, what is the recommended value? mls qos trust dscp Isn't accepted. How do I trust DSCP? Thanks
