You can attach an egress buffer profile to a port.
You must configure the no qos egress-buffer-profile command to detach a profile from any ports that
are using it before you can configure the no qos egress-buffer-profile command to delete it.
The higher the sharing level, the better the port absorb micro-burst. However, higher sharing level of 7
and 8 may compromise QoS functions and create uneven distribution of traffic during congestions.
The following is the default egress buffer profile:
Queue
Share level
0
level4-1/9
1
level3-1/16
2
level3-1/16
3
level3-1/16
4
level3-1/16
5
level3-1/16
6
level3-1/16
7
level3-1/16
The following eight queue-share levels are supported:
Level
Sharing-pool buffers
level1-1/64
1/64 of buffers in the sharing pool
level2-1/32
1/32 of buffers in the sharing pool
level3-1/16
1/16 of buffers in the sharing pool
level4-1/9
1/9 of buffers in the sharing pool
level5-1/5
1/5 of buffers in the sharing pool
level6-1/3
1/3 of buffers in the sharing pool
level7-1/2
