Configuring the Queues

Each of the four queues has the following configurable parameters:

•The queue name

•The minimum percentage of a port’s outbound bandwidth guaranteed to the queue.

Renaming the Queues

The default queue names are qosp3, qosp2, qosp1, and qosp0. You can change one or more of the names if desired. To do so, use one of the following methods.

USING THE CLI

To rename queue qosp3 (the premium queue) to “92-octane”, enter the following commands:

HP9300(config)# qos name qosp3 92-octane

HP9300(config)# write memory

Syntax: qos name <old-name> <new-name>

The <old-name> parameter specifies the name of the queue before the change.

The <new-name> parameter specifies the new name of the queue. You can specify an alphanumeric string up to 32 characters long.
