wrr-queue cos-map

To map CoS values to drop thresholds for a queue, use the wrr-queue cos-map command. To return to the default settings, use the no form of this command.

wrr-queue cos-map queue-id threshold-id cos-1 ... cos-n

no wrr-queue cos-map

Syntax Description

queue-id

Queue number; the valid value is 1.

threshold-id

Threshold ID; valid values are from 1 to 4.

cos-1 ... cos-n

CoS value; valid values are from 0 to 7.


Defaults

The defaults are as follows:

Receive queue 1/drop threshold 1 and transmit queue 1/drop threshold 1: CoS 0 and 1.

Receive queue 1/drop threshold 2 and transmit queue 1/drop threshold 2: CoS 2 and 3.

Receive queue 2/drop threshold 3 and transmit queue 2/drop threshold 1: CoS 4 and 6.

Receive queue 2/drop threshold 4 and transmit queue 2/drop threshold 2: CoS 7.

On 1p1q4t, 1p2q2t, and 1p3q1t interfaces, CoS 5 is mapped to the strict-priority queues.

Support for this command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

Enter up to eight CoS values to map to the threshold.

The threshold for 1p3q1t is always 1.

Examples

This example shows how to map the CoS values 0 and 1 to standard transmit queue 1/threshold 1:

Router(config-if)# wrr-queue cos-map 1 1 0 1 
Router(config-if)#

wrr-queue queue-limit

To set the transmit-queue size ratio on an interface, use the wrr-queue queue-limit command. To return to the default settings, use the no form of this command.

wrr-queue queue-limit {queue1-weight [queue2-weight] queue3-weight}

no wrr-queue queue-limit

wrr-queue queue-limit {queue1-weight [queue2-weight] queue3-weight}

no wrr-queue queue-limit

Syntax Description

queue1-weight

Ratio of the low-priority queue weight; valid values are from 1 and 100 percent.

queue2-weight

(Optional) Ratio of the medium-priority queue weight; valid values are from 1 and 100 percent.

queue3-weight

Ratio of the high-priority queue weight; see the "Usage Guidelines" section for valid values.


Defaults

The defaults are as follows:

90 percent for low priority

10 percent for high priority

Command History

Release
Modification

12.2(18)ZU

Support for this command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

Valid high-priority weight values are from 1 to 100 percent, except on 1p2q1t egress LAN ports, where valid values for the high-priority queue are from 5 to 100 percent.

On 1p2q2t interfaces, QoS sets the strict-priority queue size equal to the high-priority queue size.

Estimate the mix of low priority-to-high priority traffic on your network (for example, estimate 80 percent to low-priority traffic and 20 percent to high-priority traffic). Use the estimated percentages as queue weights.

Due to the granularity of programming the hardware, the values that are set in the hardware are close approximations of the provided values. For example, if you specify 0 percent, the actual value that is programmed is not necessarily 0.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the transmit-queue size ratio:

Router (config-if)# wrr-queue queue-limit 75 25
Router(config-if)#

Allocates the bandwidth between the standard transmit queues.


wrr-queue random-detect

To enable WRED or specify the minimum and maximum WRED threshold for the specified queues on 1p2q2t and 1p3q1t interfaces, use the wrr-queue random-detect command. To return to the default settings, use the no form of this command.

wrr-queue random-detect queue-id

wrr-queue random-detect {max-threshold | min-threshold} queue-id threshold-percent-1 ... threshold-percent-n

no wrr-queue random-detect queue-id

no wrr-queue random-detect {max-threshold | min-threshold} queue-id

Syntax Description

queue-id

Queue number; valid values are 1, 2, or 3.

max-threshold

Specifies the maximum WRED-drop threshold.

min-threshold

Specifies the minimum WRED-drop threshold.

threshold-percent-1
threshold-percent-n

Threshold weights; valid values are from 1 to 100 percent.


Defaults

The default is that WRED is disabled. When WRED is enabled, the defaults are as follows:

The maximum threshold is (low) 40 percent and (high) 100 percent.

The minimum thresholds are both set to zero.

12.2(18)ZU

Support for this command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

1p2q1t and 1p3q1t interfaces have WRED-drop thresholds in their standard transmit queues. You can configure 1p3q1t transmit queues to use a WRED-drop threshold or a tail-drop threshold.

To enable WRED-drop thresholds on 1p2p1t interfaces, enter the wrr-queue random-detect queue-id command. Use the no form of this command to disable WRED.

To enable WRED-drop thresholds on 1p3q1t interfaces, enter the wrr-queue random-detect queue-id command. To return to the tail-drop threshold, enter the no wrr-queue random-detect queue-id command.

The queue-id is 1 for the standard low-priority queue, 2 is for the standard high-priority queue, and 3 is for strict priority.

The threshold in the strict-priority queue is not configurable.

Each queue on a 1p2q2t interface has two thresholds; 1p3q1t interfaces have one threshold.

Each threshold has a low and a high WRED value.

WRED values are a percentage of the queue capacity.

For additional information on configuring WRED thresholds, refer to the QoS chapter in the Cisco ME 6500 Series Ethernet Switch Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the low-priority transmit-queue high-WRED drop thresholds:

Router (config-if)# wrr-queue random-detect max-threshold 1 60 100
Router (config-if)#

wrr-queue threshold

To configure the drop-threshold percentages for the standard receive and transmit queues on 1q4t and 2q2t interfaces, use the wrr-queue threshold command. To return to the default settings, use the no form of this command.

wrr-queue threshold queue-id threshold-percent-1 ... threshold-percent-n

no wrr-queue threshold queue-id

Syntax Description

queue-id

Queue number; valid values are 1 and 2.

threshold-percent-1
threshold-percent-n

Number of weights for queues 1 and 2; valid values are from 1 to 100 percent.


Defaults

When you enable QoS, the default values are as follows:

100 percent for threshold 1

60 percent for threshold 2

Modification

12.2(18)ZU

Support for this command was introduced.


Usage Guidelines

Use the transmit queue and threshold numbers.

The queue-id is 1 for the standard low-priority queue and 2 for the standard high-priority queue.

Always set threshold 2 to 100 percent.

Receive-queue drop thresholds are supported only on Gigabit Ethernet interfaces that are configured to trust CoS.

Examples

This example shows how to configure receive queue 1/threshold 1 and transmit queue 1/threshold 1:

Router(config-if)# wrr-queue threshold 1 60 100 
Router(config-if)#
