3.6.5 Packet Scheduling


Click QoS > Packet Scheduling to display the screen as shown next.

Packet Scheduling is used to help solve performance degradation when there is network

congestion. Use this screen to configure queuing algorithms for outgoing traffic.


The following table describes the labels in this screen.

DESCRIPTION

Port

Select the number of the port for which you want to assign IEEE 802.1p
priority to incoming frames.

Scheduling
Algorithm

Select the algorithm of packet scheduling:

WFQ: Weighted Fair Queuing, octet-based egress scheduling method

depend on queue weighted.

WRR: Weighted Round Robin, packet-based egress scheduling method

depend on queue weighted.

Note: Weighted Fair Queuing is used to guarantee each queue's minimum
bandwidth based on their bandwidth portion (weight) (the number you
configure in the weight field). Queues with larger weights get more
guaranteed bandwidth than queues with smaller weights. Weighted Round
Robin Scheduling services queues on a rotating basis based on their queue
weight (the number you configure in the queue weight field). Queues with
larger weights get more service than queues with smaller weights.
