Chapter 16 – Configuring Traffic Prioritization
Prioritization works by establishing queues at the required priority levels filling the
transmit queue with them in priority order. The aim of establishing low latency for
certain traffic is foiled when transmit queue lengths are large because multiple low
priority packets may have queued before a high priority packet arrives at the router.
RuggedCom recommends that the transmit queue length be left at its minimum
default value of 1. Higher values, however, may strike a balance between latency an
performance.
Prioritization Statistics
Figure 145: Prioritization Statistics
This menu displays the percentage of interface traffic that has been transmitted from
each priority queue. The Refresh button causes the statistics to be updated. The
Clear Statistics And Refresh button causes the statistics to be cleared and then
captured after a one second interval.
