The Queue types are Weight Round Robin (WRR), Best Effort (BE), and Strictly Priority (SP).
• WRR services on a rotating basis and is activated only when a port has more traffic than it can handle. A
queue is a given an amount of bandwidth irrespective of the incoming traffic on that port. The queue then
moves to the back of the list. The next queue is given an equal amount of bandwidth, and then moves to the
end of the list, and so on, depending on the number of queues being used, This works in a looping fashion
until a queue is empty.
• BE is used for data applications or any non-classified traffic. This would include e-mail, Internet browsing,
data back-up etc. The BE class is for traffic that can afford to wait and not affect the overall outcome of the
data application.
