allocation for these queues. In WFQ mode, frame latency as delay bound is not assured.
‰
Best Effort (BE) - In BE mode, a queue only receives bandwidth when none of the other classes have any
traffic. It is used for non-essential traffic because there are no assurances about BE performance.

There are ten profiles in the configuration menu. The following is the mapping between the ten profiles and the
four scheduling configurations.

Note : If the Delay Sensitive Application option of any active profile is enabled, an error message will be
displayed when you try to set the rate control. It is recommended to try to activate another profile with the Delay
Sensitive Application option disabled because the Delay Bound scheduling operation conflicts with rate
control operation of the switch. It is recommended to use Profiles 3, 4, 7 or 8 as the activity profiles for rate
control operation because they are
Delay Sensitive Application disabled.
You can configure the WFQ setting in each profile and select four of the ten profiles to be the active profiles for
the scheduling operation on each port of the switch. For the profile setting, first select either
Megabit Ports
Profile or Gigabit Ports Profile .
Megabit Profile
Use the Megabit Profile to define the content of QoS profiles. There are ten different profiles, but only four of
them can be the active profiles for QoS control in the switch. The 01 profile contains the following settings:
‰
Port Using This Profile – Lists the ports using this profile.
‰
Strict Priority - Displays the Strict Priority setting of this profile.
‰
Delay Sensitive Application - Displays the Delay Bound setting of the profile.
‰
Profile Name – Displays the name of this profile which can be modified.
‰
