Hi dear Sunners,
This list is great :-)
Here is the original question:
> We would like to increase the priority to 3270 packets over our Frame Relay
> connection over the other packets. i.e. At each time our router see
>a 3270 packet, it will stop (by examples) the ftp packets.
> The real problem is that we have some
> users doing interactive work using a remote 3270 application and the
> response time is not acceptable. We are doing a lot of FTP transfers in
> the same time and we use the same data link. So I thougth that maybe we can
> configure our router and firewall to give higher priority for the 3270
> packets but I don't know how.
> Any ideas? Is it something we can do?
> We have a Cisco 2501 router and have firewall-1 installed on a Sparc 10.
> I supposed also that we have to configure the remote router.
A big THANK YOU to Reto Lichtensteiger who send me the exact syntax to do it.
(And that works :-) )
Here is his mail:
You're in luck <g>
Cisco supports Priority Queueing
Syntax is:
priority-list <list-#>
protocol <prot-name>
{high | medium | normal | low}
<queue-keyword>
<keyword-value>
So, for example, making telnet have faster response time, ftp-data low
and all else normal:
priority-list 1 protocol ip high tcp 23
priority-list 1 protocol ip low tcp 20
priority-list 1 default normal
Then tie it to the interface with this
interface serial 0
priority-group 1
