Configuring Egress Scheduling

This procedure explains how to select and configure a scheduling method
for Class of Service. Scheduling determines the order in which the ports
handle packets in their egress queues. For an explanation of the two
scheduling methods, refer to “Scheduling” on page 310. Scheduling is set
at the switch level. You cannot set this on a per-port basis.

1. From the Main Menu, type 7 to select Security and Services.

The Security and Services menu is shown in Figure 103 on page 313.

2. From the Security and Services menu, type 5 to select Class of

Service (CoS).

The Class of Service (CoS) menu is shown in Figure 104 on page 314.

3. From the Class of Service (CoS) menu, type 3 to select Configure

Egress Scheduling.

The Configure Egress Scheduling menu is shown in Figure 107.

4. Type 1 to toggle Scheduling Mode between its two possible settings.

The default setting is Strict Priority.

If you select Strict Priority, skip the next step. Options 2 through 5 in
the menu do not apply to Strict Priority scheduling.

5. If you select Weighted Round Robin Priority as the scheduling method,

select menu options 2 through 5 and specify the maximum number of
packets you want a port to transmit from each queue before it moves
to the next queue. The range is 0 to 255. For an example, refer to
Table 10 on page 311. The default value of 1 for each queue gives all
egress queues the same weight.
