mls qos queue-set output buffers
mls qos queue-set output buffers
Use the
mls qos queue-set output buffers
global configuration command to allocate buffers to a
queue-set (four egress queues per port). Use the
no
form of this command to return to the default setting.

Syntax Description
Defaults
All allocation values are equally mapped among the four queues (25, 25, 25, 25). Each queue has 1/4 of
the buffer space.
Command Modes
Global configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Specify four allocation values, and separate each with a space.
Allocate buffers according to the importance of the traffic. For example, give a larger percentage of the
buffer to the queue with the highest-priority traffic.
To configure different classes of traffic with different characteristics, use this command with the
mls qos
queue-set output
qset-id
threshold
global configuration command.
Note
The egress queue-set default settings are suitable for most situations. You should change them only when
you have a thorough understanding of the queues and if these settings do not meet your quality of service
(QoS) solution.
Examples
This example shows how to map a port to queue-set 2. It allocates 40 percent of the buffer space to egress
queue 1 and 20 percent each to egress queues 2, 3, and 4.
Switch(config)#
mls qos queue-set output 2 buffers 40 20 20 20
Switch(config)#

Switch(config-if)#
queue-set 2
qset-id
ID of the queue-set. Each port belongs to a queue-set, which defines all the
characteristics of the four egress queues per port. The range is 1 to 2.
allocation1 ...
allocation4
Buffer space allocation (percentage) for each queue (four values for queues 1 to 4).
For
allocation1
,
allocation3
, and
allocation4
, the range is 0 to 99. For
allocation2
,
the range is 1 to 100 (including the CPU buffer). Separate each value with a space.
