Quality of Service (QoS)

This chapter describes how to use and configure Quality of Service (QoS) features on the switch.

Differentiated service is accomplished by classifying and queuing traffic, and assigning priorities to those

queues.

Figure 102. Dell Networking QoS Architecture

Implementation Information

The Dell Networking QoS implementation complies with IEEE 802.1p User Priority Bits for QoS Indication.

It also implements these Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) documents:

• RFC 2474, Definition of the Differentiated Services Field (DS Field) in the IPv4 Headers
