2.In the Site Advanced Web Server Queue Management dialog box (Figure 3-26, "Site Advanced Web Server Queue Management Dialog Box"), you can modify the Scheduling Policy by selecting the appropriate policy from the pull down menu.

The scheduling policies supported by WebQoS are:

•Weighted Fairshare - Process entries from the queue based on the weight assigned to the queue. The higher the weight, the higher the priority of the entry. Default weights are: high priority = 6, medium priority = 3, low priority = 1.

For example, if a weight of 6 is assigned to the high priority queue, 3 to the medium, and 1 to the low, then six entries are processed in the high priority queue for every three entries processed in the medium priority queue and every one entry processed in the low priority queue.

•Strict Priority Order - Process all requests in the high priority queue first, process all requests in the medium priority queue next, and finally process all requests in the low priority queue.

•Fairshare - Process one request from each queue: one from the high priority queue, one from the medium priority queue, and one from the low priority queue. Then begin again. No priorities are
