Basic Configurations
Configuring Queue Group for Network Egress Traffic on
Port
The provisioning steps involved in using a queue-group queue on an egress network port are:
426
→ Identify which egress port (or ports) on which the queue group will be needed
(for LAG use the primary port member)
→ Create a queue group instance with the same name as the template on the port or
ports
•
From this point, there are two methods for regular Ethernet based SAPs to have port
access egress re-direction. a). Policy based re-direction and, b). SAP based re-
direction. For Policy based redirection:
•
Map a Forwarding Class to the queue-id within the queue group
→ Identify or create the SAP egress QoS policy that will be used on the egress SAP
where policy-based queue re-direction is desired
→ Map the desired forwarding classes to the queue group name and the specific
queue ID within the group with the "group" keyword
•
Apply the SAP egress QoS policy
→ Identify or create the egress SAP requiring forwarding class redirection to the
queue group
→ Assign the QoS policy to the SAP
•
For SAP based redirection:
•
Map a Forwarding Class to the queue-id within the queue group
→ Identify or create the SAP egress QoS policy that will be used on the egress SAP
where SAP-based queue re-direction redirection is desired
→ Map the desired forwarding classes to the queue group specific queue-id, and the
keyword "port-redirect-group-queue". The actual queue-group template name is
determined by the sap instance's configuration which associated the sap-egress
qos policy in conjunction with the port-redirect-group's instance.
•
Apply the SAP egress QoS policy and the queue-group template's instance under the
SAP.
→ Identify or create the egress SAP requiring forwarding class redirection to the
queue group
→ Assign the QoS policy and the egress queue-group template's instance to the
SAP.
•
Queue Group Template Creation:
→ Create the egress queue group template.
