Transmit Queues Configuration Screen Fields
The following information briefly explains each Transmit Queues Configuration
Screen field.
Current Queueing Mode (Toggle)
This field allows a user to toggle between the STRICT 802.1 and WEIGHTED
mode. The default setting is STRICT 802.1.
Weights Q0, Q1, Q2, Q3 (Selectable)
This field is used to allocate the percentage of port transmission capacity
according to transmit queues Q0 through Q3 (with Q0 being the lowest priority
transmit queue).
The weights selected must equal 100% or the values cannot be saved. Default
weight distribution is 25% per transmission queue. Selectable percent weight
values per priority transmit queue Q0 through Q3 are as follows: 00, 06, 12, 19, 25,
31, 38, 44, 50, 56, 62, 69, 75, 81, 88, 94, 100.
Port (Selectable)
This field is used to step to the port to be configured. As each port is stepped to,
the port type (e.g., Ethernet Frontpanel) displays to the right of the selected port
number. To display the current weight settings for the selected port, press ENTER.
