API Guide

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 76. Default Bandwidth Weights
Queue Default Bandwidth Percentage for 4–
Queue System
Default Bandwidth Percentage for 8–
Queue System
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 8 data queues.
When you assign a percentage to one queue, note that this change also affects the amount of bandwidth that is allocated to
other queues. Therefore, whenever you are allocating bandwidth to one queue, Dell EMC 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 configure the WRED drop precedence in an output QoS policy.
● Specify a WRED profile to yellow and/or green traffic.
QOS-POLICY-OUT mode

For more information, refer to Applying a WRED Profile to Traffic.
Create Policy Maps
There are two types of policy maps: input and output.
Creating Input Policy Maps
There are two types of input policy-maps: Layer 3 and Layer 2.
1. Create a Layer 3 input policy map.
CONFIGURATION mode
policy-map-input
Create a Layer 2 input policy map by specifying the keyword layer2 with the policy-map-input command.
2. After you create an input policy map, do one or more of the following:
Applying a Class-Map or Input QoS Policy to a Queue
Applying an Input QoS Policy to an Input Policy Map
Honoring DSCP Values on Ingress Packets
Honoring dot1p Values on Ingress Packets
3. Apply the input policy map to an interface.
