Chapter 19: QoS Configuration Guide

SSR Queuing Policies

You can use one of two queuing policies on the SSR:

Strict priority

: Assures the higher priorities of throughput but at the expense of lower 

priorities. For example, during heavy loads, low-priority traffic can be dropped to 
preserve throughput of control-priority traffic, and so on.

Weighted fair queuing

: Distributes priority throughput among the four priorities 

(control, high, medium, and low) based on percentages.

You can set the queuing policy on a per-port basis. The default queuing policy is strict 
priority.

Traffic Prioritization for Layer-2 Flows

QoS policies applied to layer-2 flows allow you to assign priorities based on source and 
destination MAC addresses. A QoS policy set for a layer-2 flow allows you to classify the 
priority of traffic from:

A specific source MAC address to a specific destination MAC address (use only when 
the port is in flow bridging mode)

Any source MAC address to a specific destination MAC address

Before applying a QoS policy to a layer-2 flow, you must first determine whether a port is 
in address-bridging mode or flow-bridging mode. If a port operates in address-bridging 
mode (default), you can specify the priority based on the destination MAC address and a 
VLAN ID. You can also specify a list of ports to apply the policy.

If a port operates in flow-bridging mode, the user can be more specific and configure 
priorities for frames that match both a source AND a destination MAC address and a 
VLAN ID. You can also specify a list of ports to apply the policy.

The VLAN ID in the QoS configuration must match the VLAN ID assigned to the list of 
ports to which the QoS policy is applied. In a layer-2 only configuration, each port has 
only one VLAN ID associated with it and the QoS policy should have the same VLAN ID. 
When different VLANs are assigned to the same port using different protocol VLANs, the 
layer-2 QoS policy must match the VLAN ID of the protocol VLAN.

Note:

In flow mode, you can also ignore the source MAC address and configure the 
priority based on the destination MAC address only.

Configuring Layer-2 QoS

When applying QoS to a layer-2 flow, priority can be assigned as follows:
