QoS Configuration Guidelines and Restrictions
QoS has the following hardware granularity for the committed information rate (CIR) and the peak
information rate (PIR) values:
Within each range, PFC QoS programs the PFC hardware with the rate values that are multiples of the
granularity values.
Transmit-queue drop-threshold
percentages
All thresholds set to 100%
Transmit-queue low-priority/high-priority
bandwidth allocation ratio
255:1
Transmit-queue size ratio
•
Low priority: 100%
•
High priority: Not used
CoS value/drop-threshold mapping
Receive-drop threshold 1 and transmit-queue 1/drop threshold 1: CoS 0–7
1.
