To make use of information regarding transmit queues drops shown in Example 6-22, you must<br />
understand which traffic classes are assigned to which transmit queues and which drop thresholds within<br />
those queues. For <strong>Cisco</strong> Catalyst 3750G or 3750E Series switches, the show mls qos maps<br />
dscp-output-q command can be used to display which DSCP values are mapped to which transmit<br />
queues and drop thresholds on the switch, as shown in Example 6-23.<br />

The vertical column, marked d1, represents the first decimal number of the DSCP value, while the<br />
horizontal column, marked d2, represents the second decimal number of the DSCP value. For example,<br />
a d1 value of 3 and a d2 value of 2 yields a DSCP decimal value of 32, which corresponds to the CS4<br />
service class. This is mapped to queue 1, drop threshold 3 in Example 6-23 (highlighted in bold). Again,<br />
you still need to separately understand the mapping of specific video applications to service classes that<br />
are then marked with a particular DSCP value. However, combined with the knowledge of which traffic<br />
classes and are mapped to which transmit queue and drop threshold, you can use this information to<br />
troubleshoot video application performance issues across the <strong>Cisco</strong> Catalyst 3750G/3750E Series<br />
platforms.<br />
To see the particular values of the buffer allocation and drop thresholds, you can issue the show mls qos<br />
queue-set command. An example of the output is shown in Example 6-24.<br />
