Privileged Exec
Report Fields Interface — This displays the slot/port of the interface. If displaying the global configuration, this output 
line is replaced with a Global Config indication.
The following information is repeated for each queue on the interface.
Queue IdQueue identification number — An interface supports n queues numbered 0 to (n-1). The 
number n is platform dependent and corresponds to the number of supported queues (traffic classes).
The following information is repeated for each drop precedence level defined for the 
preceding Queue ID.
Drop Precedence Level — The drop precedence level for this queue, from 1 to p. The specific pvalue is 
platform-dependent.
Tail Drop Threshold — The tail drop queue threshold value for this drop precedence level, expressed in 
sixteenths of the overall device queue size (e.g., 0/16, 1/16, 2/16…, 16/16). This is a configured value.

History
tail-drop queue-parms 
This command sets the tail drop threshold parameter for each drop precedence level 
supported by a queue (four queues in SFTOS 2.4.1). The 
no form of this command restores 
the default values for the queue tail drop threshold parameters.
