Versa Networks VNX301 Exam - Topic 6 Question 8 Discussion

Examine the exhibit below. You are configuring Class of Service on a WAN-facing network interface, and you want to perform DSCP rewrite on the packets that are forwarded to the WAN. However, you are not able to turn on DSCP rewrite. Referring to the exhibit, what is the cause of this issue?
C) The Associate interface/Network setting is set to Interface and not Network.
A) Rewrite requires the configuration of shaping on the interface.
B) Scheduler Map and Rewrite cannot be configured at the same time.
D) There are no rewrite rules configured.

Examine the exhibit below. You are configuring Class of Service on a WAN-facing network interface, and you want to perform DSCP rewrite on the packets that are forwarded to the WAN. However, you are not able to turn on DSCP rewrite. Referring to the exhibit, what is the cause of this issue?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

In the exhibit, the Add Associate Interface/Network window has Interface selected, and the interface name is set to vni-0/0. The DSCP rewrite option is not available because rewrite behavior is intended to be applied at the network association level for the WAN network, not directly while associating only the physical/logical interface. For WAN-facing CoS, the scheduler and shaping parameters can be attached to an interface, but DSCP rewrite policies are applied to remark traffic as it exits through a network context.

Versa SD-WAN design documentation explains that QoS rewrite rules rewrite packet QoS attributes as packets leave the VOS device, and that rewrite rules can modify IEEE 802.1p bits, IPv4 TOS/DSCP bits, and IPv6 traffic class bits. It also explains that a rewrite policy is commonly applied on a WAN network to remark traffic based on the forwarding class and loss priority assigned by QoS or App QoS policies. In the design example, Versa explicitly describes applying a QoS propagation or rewrite policy on the MPLS WAN network to remark traffic to a DSCP value. Therefore, the issue is the association type: it is set to Interface, not Network.

I'm leaning towards D. No rewrite rules means no DSCP rewrite.

I feel like it's A. Shaping needs to be set up first for rewrite.

I think it's B. Scheduler Map and Rewrite can't work together.

Totally agree with techguy, shaping is key here!

D) makes sense too, no rules means no rewrite.

Wait, is it really C)? That seems odd.

I think B) is the issue. Can't have both at once!

I’m leaning towards option D because if there are no rewrite rules, then it makes sense that DSCP rewrite wouldn’t work, right? But I’m not completely confident.

I feel like I read that if the Associate setting is wrong, it could prevent DSCP rewrite from being enabled. That might be worth considering.

I think I came across a similar question where the issue was related to the scheduler map conflicting with rewrite settings. Could that be the case here?

I remember something about needing to configure shaping for DSCP rewrite to work, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only requirement.
