Configuring Traffic Prioritization

QoS Classification

The EDS supports inspection of layer 3 TOS and/or layer 2 QoS tag information to determine how to classify traffic packets. (NOTE: The user interface for the EDS-408A shows 8 ports.)

Queuing Mechanism

 

Setting

Description

 

Factory Default

 

 

 

The EDS-408A/405A has 4 priority queues. In the

 

 

 

 

 

weight fair scheme, an 8, 4, 2, 1 weighting is applied

 

 

 

 

Weighted Fair

to the four priorities. This approach prevents the lower

 

 

 

 

priority frames from being starved of opportunity for

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

transmission with only a slight delay to the higher

 

 

 

 

 

priority frames.

 

Weight Fair

 

 

 

In the Strict-priority scheme, all top-priority frames

 

 

 

 

egress a port until that priority’s queue is empty, and

 

 

 

 

Strict

then the next lower priority queue’s frames egress.

 

 

 

 

This approach can cause the lower priorities to be

 

 

 

 

 

starved of opportunity for transmitting any frames but

 

 

 

 

 

ensures all high priority frames to egress the switch as

 

 

 

 

 

soon as possible.
