qos-policy-buer
Create a QoS policy buer and enter the conguration mode to congure the no-drop queues, ingress buer size, buer limit for pausing,
and buer oset limit for resuming.
Syntax
qos-policy-buffer queue queue-num pause no-drop queue buffer-size size pause-
threshold threshold-value resume-offset threshold-value shared-threshold-weight
size
Parameters
policy-name Name of the QoS policy buer that is applied to an interface for this setting to be
eective in conjunction with the DCB input policy. You can specify the shared buer
threshold limit, the ingress buer size, buer limit for pausing the acceptance of packets,
and the buer oset limit for resuming the acceptance of received packets. This method
of conguration enables dierent peer-provided and administrative priorities to be set up
because the intended queue is directly congured instead of determining the priority to
queue mapping for local and remote parameters.
queue 0 to queue 7 Specify the queue number to which the QoS policy buer parameters apply
pause Pause frames to be sent at the specied buer limit levels and pause packet settings
no-drop The packets for this queue must not be dropped
value Enter a number in the range of 0 to 7 to denote the priority to be allocated to the dynamic
buer control mechanism
buer-size Ingress buer size
size Size of the ingress buer in KB. Enter a number in the range of 0 to 7787. The default is
45 KB.
pause-threshold Buer limit for pause frames to be sent
threshold-value Buer limit at which the port sends the pause to peer in KB. Enter a number in the range
of 0 to 7787. The default is 10 KB.
resume-oset Buer oset limit for resuming in KB
threshold-value Buer oset limit at which the port resumes the peer in KB. Enter a number in the range
of 1 to 7787. The default is 10 KB.
shared-threshold-
weight
Buer shared threshold weight
size Weightage of the priorities on the shared buer size in the system. Enter a number in the
range of 0 to 9. The default shared threshold weight is 10.
Default The default size of the ingress buer is 45 KB. The default buer limit at which the port sends the pause to peer
and recommences the sending of packets to the peer is 10 KB. The default threshold weight of the shared buer
space is 10.
