mls qos srr-queue input priority-queue

mls qos srr-queue input priority-queue

Use the mls qos srr-queue input priority-queue global configuration command on the switch stack or
on a standalone switch to configure the ingress priority queue and to guarantee bandwidth on the stack
or internal ring if the ring is congested. Use the no form of this command to return to the default setting.

Usage Guidelines

You should use the priority queue only for traffic that needs to be expedited (for example, voice traffic,
which needs minimum delay and jitter).

The priority queue is guaranteed part of the bandwidth on the stack or internal ring, which reduces the
delay and jitter under heavy network traffic on an oversubscribed ring or stack (when there is more traffic
than the backplane can carry, and the queues are full and dropping frames).

The amount of bandwidth that can be guaranteed is restricted because a large value affects the entire
stack and can degrade the stack performance.

Shaped round robin (SRR) services the priority queue for its configured weight as specified by the
bandwidth keyword in the mls qos srr-queue input priority-queue queue-id bandwidth weight global
configuration command. Then SRR shares the remaining bandwidth with both ingress queues and
services them as specified by the weights configured with the mls qos srr-queue input bandwidth
weight1 weight2
global configuration command.

To disable priority queueing, set the bandwidth weight to 0, for example, mls qos srr-queue input
priority-queue
queue-id bandwidth 0.

queue-id

Ingress queue ID. The range is 1 to 2.

bandwidth weight

Bandwidth percentage of the stack or internal ring. The range is 0 to 40.
