Chapter 20 Queuing Method
Table 50 | Advanced Application > Queuing Method (continued) | |
LABEL | DESCRIPTION | |
Method | Select SPQ (Strictly Priority Queuing), WFQ (Weighted Fair Queuing) or | |
| WRR (Weighted Round Robin). | |
| Strictly Priority services queues based on priority only. When the highest | |
| priority queue empties, traffic on the next | |
| has the highest priority and Q0 the lowest. | |
| Weighted Fair Queuing is used to guarantee each queue's minimum bandwidth | |
| based on their bandwidth weight (the number you configure in the Weight | |
| field). Queues with larger weights get more guaranteed bandwidth than | |
| queues with smaller weights. | |
| Weighted Round Robin Scheduling 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 WFQ or WRR enter the queue weight here. Bandwidth is | |
| divided across the different traffic queues according to their weights. | |
|
| |
Hybrid- | This field is applicable only when you select WFQ or WRR. | |
SPQ | Select a queue (Q0 to Q7) to have the Switch use Strictly Priority to service | |
Lowest | ||
the subsequent queue(s) after and including the specified queue. For example, | ||
Queue | ||
if you select Q5, the Switch services traffic on Q5, Q6 and Q7 using Strictly | ||
| ||
| Priority. | |
| Select None to always use WFQ or WRR. | |
|
| |
Apply | Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s | |
| 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 | |
| memory when you are done configuring. | |
