Table 20 Queuing Method
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Port This label shows the port you are configuring.
Method Select SPQ (Strict Priority Queuing) or WFQ (Weighted Fair Queueing).
Strict Priority Queuing (SPQ) services queues based on priority only. When the
highest priority queue empties, traffic on the next highest-priority queue begins. Q3
has the highest priority and Q0 the lowest.
Weighted Fair Queuing is used to guarantee each queue's minimum bandwidth
based on their bandwidth portion (weight) (the number you configure in the Weight
field). Queues with larger weights get more guaranteed bandwidth than queues with
smaller weights.
Q0~Q3 Weight
When you select WFQ, enter the queue weight here. Bandwidth is divided across
the different traffic queues according to their weights. Queues with larger weights get
more service than queues with smaller weights.

navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are
done configuring.
