Configuring Egress Scheduling
This procedure explains how to select and configure a scheduling
method for QoS. 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 194. Scheduling is set
at the switch level. You cannot set this at the port level.
To change scheduling, perform the following procedure.
1. From the Home Page, select Configuration.
The System page is displayed with the General tab selected by
default, as shown in Figure 194 on page 586.
2. From the Configuration menu, select the QoS option.
The QoS page is displayed with the CoS tab selected by default, as
shown in Figure 221 on page 658.
3. Select the Scheduling tab.
The Scheduling tab is shown in Figure 223 on page 661.
Note
The Configure CoS Queues to Egress Queues section in the tab is
explained in the previous procedure Mapping CoS Priorities to
Egress Queues on page 661.
4. To select a scheduling method, click either Strict Priority or
Weighted Priority in the Configure Egress Weights section of the
tab. The default is Strict Priority.
Skip the next step if you select Strict Priority. Queue weights do
not apply to Strict Priority scheduling.
5. If you selected Weighted Priority, use the Queue # Weight fields to
specify for each queue the number of packets you want a port to
transmit before it goes to the next queue. For an example, refer to
Table 10 on page 195.
Leaving the default value of 1 for each queue results in all egress
queues being given the same priority.
6. Click Apply.
7. To permanently save the change, use the Save Changes button in the
General tab. For directions, refer to Saving Your Parameter Changes
on page 577.
