11.4 Advanced QoS Settings
The following sections describe additional methods for setting priority for incoming
packets on the ports. The Switch allows you to choose one of the following
methods:
Priority This value indicates packet priority and is retrieved from the priority tag field
of incoming packets. The values range from 0 (lowest priority) to 7 (highest
priority). Click the options below the priority values to send packets of a
specific priority to a particular queue. You can also set this priority based on
criteria you configure in the Advanced QoS screens. See the sections later in
this chapter for more information.
Queue 0
... Queue
3
This field indicates which Queue (0 to 3) you are configuring. Queue 0 has the
lowest priority and Queue 3 the highest priority.
Weight You can only configure the queue weights when Weighted Round Robin is
selected. Bandwidth is divided across the different traffic queues according to
their weights.
Note: If you want to use Strict Priority but want to change the weights
for the queues, configure them with Weighted Round Robin
selected first and then change the scheduling method to Strict
Priority.
