Accton Technology ES4548D, ES4524D Setting the Service Weight for Traffic Classes, 55-2, 55-5

Layer 2 Queue Settings 26

Command Attributes

•WRR - Weighted Round-Robin shares bandwidth at the egress ports by using scheduling weights 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 for queues 0 through 7 respectively. (This is the default selection.)

•Strict - Services the egress queues in sequential order, transmitting all traffic in the higher priority queues before servicing lower priority queues.

Web – Click Priority, Queue Mode. Select Strict or WRR, then click Apply.

CLI – The following sets the queue mode to strict priority service mode.

Console(config)#queue mode strict	55-2

Setting the Service Weight for Traffic Classes

This switch uses the Weighted Round Robin (WRR) algorithm to determine the frequency at which it services each priority queue. As described in “Mapping CoS Values to Egress Queues” on page 26-3,the traffic classes are mapped to one of the eight egress queues provided for each port. You can assign a weight to each of these queues (and thereby to the corresponding traffic priorities). This weight sets the frequency at which each queue will be polled for service, and subsequently affects the response time for software applications assigned a specific priority value.

Command Attributes

•WRR Setting Table3 – Displays a list of weights for each traffic class (i.e., queue).

•Weight Value – Set a new weight for the selected traffic class. (Range: 1-15)
