RIORITIZATION

Prioritization is used when there is bandwidth contention for transmission on a port.
The four levels of priority are used as a mechanism for resolving the contention
between traffic groups. If traffic groups have the same priority, a “round-robin”
algorithm is applied.

Up to 28 custom QoS profiles can be created on the Summit in egress mode. To create a
QoS profile, use the following command:

create qosprofile

A new QoS profile is created with the following default values:

Minimum bandwidth — 0%

Maximum bandwidth — 100%

Priority — low

Each of the default values is configurable by using the following command in egress
mode:

config qosprofile {minbw } {maxbw }

{priority }

In ingress mode, use the same command syntax to modify the bandwidth parameters of
the default QoS profiles, however the priority level specified is ignored.

Once you have established one or more traffic classifications and configured one or
more QoS profiles, you can match them together using one of the following commands:

config vlan qosprofile

or

config port qosprofile

You can assign a QoS profile to a MAC entry by using the following command:

create fdbentry vlan [blackhole | |

dynamic] {qosprofile }
