mls qos queue-set output buffers

mls qos queue-set output buffers

Use the mls qos queue-set output buffers global configuration command on the switch stack or on a
standalone switch to allocate buffers to a queue-set (four egress queues per port). Use the no form of this
command to return to the default setting.

mls qos queue-set output qset-id buffers allocation1 ... allocation4

no mls qos queue-set output qset-id buffers

Syntax Description

Defaults

All allocation values are equally mapped among the four queues (25, 25, 25, 25). Each queue has 1/4 of
the buffer space.

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines

Specify four allocation values, and separate each with a space.

Allocate buffers according to the importance of the traffic; for example, give a large percentage of the
buffer to the queue with the highest-priority traffic.

To configure different classes of traffic with different characteristics, use this command with the mls qos
queue-set output
qset-id threshold global configuration command.

Note

The egress queue default settings are suitable for most situations. You should change them only when
you have a thorough understanding of the egress queues and if these settings do not meet your QoS
solution.

Examples

This example shows how to map a port to queue-set 2. It allocates 40 percent of the buffer space to egress
queue 1 and 20 percent to egress queues 2, 3, and 4:

Switch(config)# mls qos queue-set output 2 buffers 40 20 20 20

Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet2/0/1

Switch(config-if)# queue-set 2

qset-id

ID of the queue-set. Each port belongs to a queue-set, which defines all the
characteristics of the four egress queues per port. The range is 1 to 2.

allocation1 ...
allocation4

Buffer space allocation (percentage) for each queue (four values for queues 1 to 4).
For allocation1, allocation3, and allocation4, the range is 0 to 99. For allocation2,
the range is 1 to 100 (including the CPU buffer). Separate each value with a space.
