			<description><![CDATA[Queuing Option A â€“ first in, first out (FIFO) <br />
â€¢ This is the default queuing option. <br />
â€¢ Recommended if you donâ€™t need to prioritize one type of traffic over another. <br />
â€¢ Available with Private Port and Enhanced Port, all access types (Table 2). <br />
â€¢ Available with SmartPVC (Table 3). <br />
This option is FIFOâ€”no specialized queuing. Packets are simply sent in the order they are received. <br />
Refer to template 0 (P1=0, P2=5, P3=0, P4=95). <br />
Note: A small amount of bandwidth is reserved for network control traffic, even though there is no <br />
customer-directed queuing. <br />
<br />
Queuing Option B â€“ unlimited P1 bandwidth <br />
â€¢ Recommended only if you have a sophisticated understanding of your traffic types and flows and <br />
the implications of queue starvation that may occur. <br />
â€¢ Available with Private Port and Enhanced Port, all access types (Table 2). <br />
â€¢ Available with SmartPVC (Table 3) <br />
This option always services the P1 queue first until it is empty, at the expense of the other queues, <br />
regardless of the percentage value assigned to the P1 queue.   <br />
 <br />
This means you can completely starve your other three queues by marking too much traffic with <br />
IPP=5. The exception is that with DIPA access, packets are serviced alternately in P1 and P2, so P2 <br />
will not be starved. Queues P2, P3 and P4 are serviced if the P1 queue is empty, and are serviced in <br />
a deficit-weighted round-robin fashion.<br />
<br />
Queuing Option C â€“ P1 low latency <br />
â€¢ Recommended if you are using voice or video, but also have a need to guarantee availability of <br />
some minimum amount of bandwidth to other applications. This option should be considered the <br />
standard option if you have voice or video traffic and DIPA local loops.<br />
â€¢ Available with Private Port, DIPA only (Table 2). <br />
Option C is similar to Option B. The difference is this option limits the amount of bandwidth the P1 <br />
queue can consume to the percentage assigned to P1.<br />
<br />
Queuing Option D â€“ No special P1 queue treatment <br />
â€¢ Recommended for general use if you have Frame Relay and/or ATM access, including voice <br />
and/or video traffic.  It is also recommended for use with DIPA where P1 should be allowed to <br />
burst to port speed. <br />

			<description><![CDATA[Queues:<br />
Qwest IP MPLS service supports four quality of service (QoS) queues allowing you full control to prioritize <br />
your applications into different priority classes based on IP precedence (IPP) bits. For example, you can <br />
set priorities so real-time applications, such as interactive voice and video, get priority over applications <br />
that do not require real-time handling. The IPP bits are the first three bits of the type-of-service byte within <br />
the IP packet header.<br />
<br />
Recommended process <br />
First, classify your traffic based on performance requirements. That classification determines which of the <br />
four queues each type of traffic uses. Mark the traffic classification using IPP; packets are then queued <br />
according to your assigned IPP classification. This classification designation determines how you use the <br />
four available queues. <br />
<br />
Qwest recommends you: <br />
â€¢ Minimize the number of queues you use <br />
â€¢ Lump traffic with similar jitter and latency requirements together; simplifying queue management <br />
â€¢ Place real-time traffic into one the top two queues, P1 and P2 <br />
<br />
Suggested prioritization <br />
If both voice and video are present, place voice into P1 and video into P2.  If only video is present, it <br />
should go into P1. Place traffic with more liberal latency and jitter requirements into the P3 and/or P4 <br />
queues. Note: P2 automatically includes network control traffic, so it is essential that this queue not be <br />
oversubscribed.<br />
<br />
Queues and IPP Values:<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Queues:<br />
Qwest IP MPLS service supports four quality of service (QoS) queues allowing you full control to prioritize <br />
your applications into different priority classes based on IP precedence (IPP) bits. For example, you can <br />
set priorities so real-time applications, such as interactive voice and video, get priority over applications <br />
that do not require real-time handling. The IPP bits are the first three bits of the type-of-service byte within <br />
the IP packet header.<br />
<br />
Recommended process <br />
First, classify your traffic based on performance requirements. That classification determines which of the <br />
four queues each type of traffic uses. Mark the traffic classification using IPP; packets are then queued <br />
according to your assigned IPP classification. This classification designation determines how you use the <br />
four available queues. <br />
<br />
Qwest recommends you: <br />
â€¢ Minimize the number of queues you use <br />
â€¢ Lump traffic with similar jitter and latency requirements together; simplifying queue management <br />
â€¢ Place real-time traffic into one the top two queues, P1 and P2 <br />
<br />
Suggested prioritization <br />
If both voice and video are present, place voice into P1 and video into P2.  If only video is present, it <br />
should go into P1. Place traffic with more liberal latency and jitter requirements into the P3 and/or P4 <br />
queues. Note: P2 automatically includes network control traffic, so it is essential that this queue not be <br />
oversubscribed.<br />
<br />

			<description><![CDATA[This is a sample CLI configuration for Call Manager Express (CME). I would like to recognize Jorge Cadengo from Akins Consulting 714-424-5151 who helped me prepare these settings.<br />
<br />
Please make sure to setup all of the local functionality of the CME before trying to setup the SIP Trunks.<br />
<br />
When you are ready to setup the SIP trunks, the first thing you wll need to do is setup a translation rule. The translation rule will help you structure how outbound calls are dialed and sent to Bandwidth.com.<br />
<br />
Translation Rule:<br />
voice translation-rule 2<br />
 rule 1 /^9\(.......\)&#36;/ /+1714\1/ Local Calling "714" is the local area code <br />
 rule 2 /^9\(..........\)&#36;/ /+1\1/  10 Digit Calling adds "+1"<br />
 rule 3 /^9\(.*\)&#36;/ /+\1/ 11 Digit Dialing adds "+"<br />
 rule 4 /^9\(...........\)&#36;/ /+\1/ Catch-all <br />
 rule 5 /^9011\(.*\)&#36;/ /+\1/ International Dialing strips the "011" and adds "+"<br />
<br />
The Dial-Peer is next. It is where the acctual trunk information is setup.<br />
<br />
Dial-Peer:<br />
dial-peer voice 101 voip<br />

 ip qos dscp cs4 signaling<br />
 clid network-number 7144245151 This is how you setup for a global outbound callerID<br />

<br />
Now here is a sample of how to configure a user phone:<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
I hope this helps Cisco Partners with Bandwidth.com SIP trunking. If you have any sugestions or comments, give me a shout.]]></description>
