wrr-queue bandwidth

Use the wrr-queue bandwidth global Configuration command to assign

Weighted Round Robin (WRR) weights to egress queues. The weight ratio

determines the frequency at which the packet scheduler removes packets

from each queue. Use the no form of this command to restore the default

configuration.

Syntax

wrr-queue bandwidth

weight1

weight2

...

weighting

no wrr-queue bandwidth

Parameters

weight1 weight1... weighting the ratio of bandwidth assigned by the WRR

packet scheduler to the packet queues. See explanation in the User

Guidelines. Separate each value by a space. (Range for each weight: 0–255)

Default Configuration

wrr is disabled by default. The default wrr weight is '1' for all queues.

Command Mode

Global Configuration mode

User Guidelines

The ratio for each queue is defined as the queue weight divided by the sum of

all queue weights (the normalized weight). This sets the bandwidth

allocation of each queue.
A weight of 0 indicates that no bandwidth is allocated for the same queue,

and the shared bandwidth is divided among the remaining queues. It is not

recommended to set the weight of a queue to a 0 as it might stop

transmission of control-protocols packets generated by the device.
All queues participate in the WRR, excluding the expedite queues, whose

corresponding weight is not used in the ratio calculation.
An expedite queue is a priority queue, which is serviced until empty before

the other queues are serviced. The expedite queues are designated by the

priority-queue out num-of-queues

command.
