Chapter 11: QoS Configuration Guide

Setting an IPX QoS Policy

To set a QoS policy on an IPX traffic flow, enter the following command in Configure mode:

Set an IPX QoS policy.

qos set ipx <name> <priority> <srcnet>any <srcmask>any <srcport>any <dstnet>any <dstmask>any <dstport>any <interface-list>any

Specifying Precedence for an IPX QoS Policy

To specify the precedence for an IPX QoS policy, enter the following command in Configure mode:

Specify precedence for an IPX QoS policy.

qos precedence ipx [srcnet <num>] [srcnode <num>] [srcport <num>] [dstnet <num>] [dstnode <num>] [dstport <num>] [intf <num>]

Configuring SSR Queueing Policy

The SSR queuing policy is set on a system-wide basis. The SSR default queuing policy is strict priority. To change the queuing policy to weighted-fair queuing on the SSR, enter the following command in Configure mode:

Set queuing policy to weighted-fair

qos set queuing-policy weighted-fair

If you want to revert the SSR queuing policy from weighted-fair to strict priority (default), enter the following command in Configure mode:

Revert the SSR queuing policy to strict priority.

negate <line within active-configuration containing qos set queuing-policy weighted-fair>

Allocating Bandwidth for a Weighted-Fair Queuing Policy

If you enable the weighted-fair queuing policy on the SSR, you can allocate bandwidth for the queues on the SSR. To allocate bandwidth for each SSR queue, enter the following command in Configure mode:

Allocate bandwidth for a weighted-fair queuing policy.

qos set weighted-fair control <percentage> high <percentage> medium <percentage> low <percentage>
