servicing lower priority queues.
• wrr - Weighted Round-Robin shares bandwidth at the egress ports by using scheduling weights 1, 2, 4, 8 for queues
0 -3 respectively.
• hybrid -Services the highest priority queue (3) according to strict priority queuing, after which the 3 lower priority
queues (0, 1, 2) are processed according to their WRR weightings.
Default Setting
Weighted Round Robin
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Usage
• The switch can be set to service the port queues based on strict priority, WRR, or a combination of strict and
weighted queueing.
• Strict priority requires all traffic in a higher priority queue to be processed before lower priority queues are serviced.
• WRR uses a relative weight for each queue which determines the number of packets the switch transmits every time
it services a queue before moving on to the next queue. Thus, a queue weighted 8 will be allowed to transmit up to 8
packets, after which the next lower priority queue will be serviced according to it's weighting. This prevents the
head-of-line blocking that can occur with strict priority queuing.
• When using hybrid priority queuing mode, the switch employ strict priority queuing for the highest priority queue
(queue 3) before processing queues 2 through 0 according to their WRR weights.
Example
The following example sets the queue mode to strict priority service mode:
Console(config)#queue mode strict
Console(config)#
switchport priority default
This command sets a priority for incoming untagged frames. Use the no form to restore the default value.
Syntax
switchport priority default default-priority-id
no switchport priority default
default-priority-id - The priority number for untagged ingress traffic.
The priority is a number from 0 to 7. Seven is the highest priority.
Default Setting
The priority is not set, and the default value for untagged frames received on the interface is zero.
