QoS (Quality of Service) functions to provide different quality of service for various network
applications and requirements and optimize the bandwidth resource distribution so as to
provide a network service experience of a better quality.
QoS

This switch classifies the ingress packets, maps the packets to four different priority queues
and then forwards the packets according to WRR scheduling algorithms to implement QoS
function.
Traffic classification: Identifies packets conforming to certain characters according to

certain rules.
Map: This switch supports four priority queues. The priority queues are labeled as

1(Lowest), 2(Normal), 3(Medium) and 4(Highest), among them the bigger the value, the
higher the priority. The ingress packets are mapped to four different priority queues based
on the QoS modes. This switch implements three priority modes based on port, on 802.1P
and on DSCP.
Queue scheduling algorithm: When the network is congested, the problem that many

packets compete for resources must be solved, usually in the way of queue scheduling. In
all QoS modes, this switch adopts WRR scheduling algorithm. In WRR scheduling algorithm,
packets in all the queues are sent in order based on the weight value for each queue and
every queue can be assured of a certain service time. The weight value indicates the
occupied proportion of the resource.
