Upgrading From A Previous Software Release; Enabling Auto-Qos For Voip - Cisco 2950 - Catalyst Switch Configuration Manual

Configuring Auto-QoS

Upgrading from a Previous Software Release

In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)EA2, the implementation for auto-QoS changed from the previous release.
The generated auto-QoS configuration was changed and support for the Cisco SoftPhone feature was
added.
If auto-QoS is configured on the switch, your switch is running a release earlier than Cisco IOS
Release 12.2(20)EA2, and you upgrade to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(20)EA2 or later, the configuration file
will not contain the new configuration, and auto-QoS will not operate. Follow these steps to update the
auto-QoS settings in your configuration file:
1.
2.
3.
4.
