Unable to force port/vlan/ipnet to cos on 7100-Series (8.42)

Unable to force port/vlan/ipnet to cos on 7100-Series (8.42)

Hi,

Our firewall cannot set 802.1p priority, only DSCP. Since the switches consider 802.1p for classification we must match traffic on the switch and set the appropriate priority somehow:
1) by port
2) by IP address/network
3) map ToS 184 to Cos 5 generally
4) .... ? (feel free to comment)

Neither of these approaches work. We do not see the 802.1p priority being set on the egress port.

This is what we tried:

set policy profile 1 name PrioToVoIP cos-status enable cos 5
set policy rule admin-profile port ge.2.35 mask 16 port-string ge.2.35 admin-pid 1

We also tried all of:
set policy rule 1 ipdestsocket 172.16.0.0 mask 16 cos 5 (the destination network of Callserver-->phones)
set policy rule 1 iptos 184 mask 8 cos 5
set cos settings 5 tos-value 184.0
set cos state enable

Note: Port ge.2.35 is the port receiving the output traffic of the firewall (tagged vlans).

When I capture (port mirror) the egress port (in this case ge.2.41) neither of them shows the 802.1p prio properly set. I tried Remote GRE mirror and local port mirror.

PBX ----> Firewall ----------> ge.2.35 -- Switch -- ge.2.41 -------> ......

I found this: https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000064287
Could this be related?

Anyone have an idea?

Thanks,
Marki

PS: QoS is pain.

Hmm, I don't think the 7100s have TCI overwrite capability. Neither do our B5s, but a configuration similar to this is working nevertheless on that platform...
