18-2 Queuing Method
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.
Weighted Round Robin Scheduling (WRR) uses the same algorithm as round robin scheduling, but services queues
based on their priority and queue weight (the number you configure in the Weight field – see Figure 18-1) rather
than a fixed amount of bandwidth. WRR is activated only when a port has more traffic than it can handle. Queues
with larger weights get more service than queues with smaller weights. This queuing mechanism is highly efficient
in that it divides any available bandwidth across the different traffic queues and returns to queues that have not yet
emptied.
