Conguring Policy-Based Rate Shaping
To congure policy-based rate shaping, use the following command.
• Congure rate shape egress trac.

Allocating Bandwidth to Queue
The switch schedules packets for egress based on Decit Round Robin (DRR). This strategy oers a guaranteed data rate.
Allocate bandwidth to queues only in terms of percentage in 4-queue and 8-queue systems. The following table shows the default
bandwidth percentage for each queue.
The following table lists the default bandwidth weights for each queue, and their equivalent percentage which is derived by dividing the
bandwidth weight by the sum of all queue weights.
Table 59. Default Bandwidth Weights

0 6.67% 1%
1 13.33% 2%
2 26.67% 3%
3 53.33% 4%
4 - 5%
5 - 10%
6 - 25%
7 - 50%
NOTE: The system supports 4 data queues.
When you assign a percentage to one queue, note that this change also aects the amount of bandwidth that is allocated to other queues.
Therefore, whenever you are allocating bandwidth to one queue, Dell Networking recommends evaluating your bandwidth requirements for
all other queues as well.
• Assign each queue a bandwidth percentage ranging from 1 to 100%, in increments of 1%.

Specifying WRED Drop Precedence
You can congure the WRED drop precedence in an output QoS policy.
