DESCRIPTION

Port

 

This label shows the port you are configuring.

 

 

 

Method

 

Select SPQ (Strict Priority Queuing) or WRR (Weighted Round Robin) scheduling.

 

 

Strict Priority Queuing (SPQ) services queues based on priority only. When the

 

 

highest priority queue empties, traffic on the next highest-priority queue begins. Q7

 

 

has the highest priority and Q0 the lowest.

 

 

WRR services queues on a rotating basis based on their queue weight (the number

 

 

you configure in the queue Weight field). Queues with larger weights get more

 

 

service than queues with smaller weights.

 

 

 

Weight

 

When you select WRR, enter the queue weight here. Bandwidth is divided across the

 

 

different traffic queues according to their weights. Queues with larger weights get

 

 

more service than queues with smaller weights.

 

 

 

Apply

 

Click Apply to save your changes to the switch’s run-time memory. The switch loses

 

 

these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top

 

 

navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done

 

 

configuring.

 

 

 

Cancel

 

Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
