QoS Parameter Overview
Using QoS parameters, you can configure a queuing architecture without specifying
the numeric subscriber rates and weights in scheduler profiles. You then use the
same QoS and scheduler profiles across all subscribers who use the same services
but at different bandwidths, reducing the total number of QoS profiles and scheduler
profiles required.
Using QoS parameters, you can specify the following attributes of a scheduler node
or queue without specifying the numeric value explicitly in the scheduler profile:
■
Shaping rate
■
Shared-shaping rate
■
Assured rate
■
Scheduler weight
