ProLiant BL p-Class GbE Interconnect Switch Web-based Interface Reference Guide

Configuring the GbE Interconnect Switch using the Web-based Interface
Setting Class of Service
To set the class of service:
1. Select Class of Service from the Configuration menu. The following screen is
displayed.
The Class of Service Configuration window allows you to set the maximum number of
packets and the maximum allowable time a packet stays in the Class of Service (CoS)
queue.
2. In the Max. Packets field, type a value between 0 and 255. The Class of Service
scheduling algorithm starts from the highest CoS for a given port, sends the maximum
number of packets, then moves on to the next lower CoS. Entering zero instructs the GbE
Interconnect Switch to continue processing packets until there are no more packets in the
CoS transaction queue.
3. In the Max. Latency field, type the maximum allowable time a packet stays in the CoS
queue. The packets in this queue are not delayed more than the maximum allowable
latency entered in this field. The timer is disabled when this field is set to zero. Each unit
of this timer is equal to 16 microseconds.
4. Click Apply after making changes to the settings.
IMPORTANT: To save the configuration settings permanently, you must enter them into NVRAM using
the Save Changes option on the Maintenance menu. Refer to the section, “Saving Changes,” earlier in
this chapter.
