Within CIR Distribution
Within CIR Distribution
Within the CIR distribution process is the initial phase of bandwidth allocation between a
parent scheduler and its child queues and child schedulers. The bandwidth that is available to
the parent scheduler is distributed first among the child members using each child's CIR level
(to define a strict priority for the CIR distribution), CIR weight (the ratio at a given CIR level
with several children), and the child's CIR value. A CIR value of zero or an undefined CIR
level causes a child to not receive any bandwidth during the CIR distribution phase. If the
parent scheduler has any bandwidth remaining after the 'within CIR' distribution phase, it
will be distributed using the above CIR distribution phase.
