number of bytes. The actual packet size is not modified; only the size used to determine the ingress
scheduling and profiling is changed. The packet-byte-offset command is meant to be an arbitrary
mechanism that can be used to either add downstream frame encapsulation or remove portions of packet
headers. Both the scheduling and profiling throughput is affected by the offset as well as the stats
(accounting) associated with the queue. The packet-byte-offset does not apply to drop statistics, received
valid statistics, or the offered managed and unmanaged statistics used by Ingress Multicast Path
Management.
The no version of this command is used to remove per packet size modifications from the queue.
Parameters
add bytes — The add keyword is mutually exclusive to the subtract keyword. Either add or subtract must be
specified. When add is defined the corresponding bytes parameter specifies the number of bytes that is
added to the size each packet associated with the queue for scheduling, profiling and accounting
purposes. From the queue's perspective, the packet size is increased by the amount being added to the
size of each packet.
Values
Default
subtract bytes — The subtract keyword is mutually exclusive to the add keyword. Either add or subtract
must be specified. When subtract is defined the corresponding bytes parameter specifies the number of
bytes that is subtracted from the size of each packet associated with the queue for scheduling, profiling
and accounting purposes. From the queue's perspective, the packet size is reduced by the amount being
subtracted from the size of each packet. Note that the minimum resulting packet size used by the system
is 1 byte.
Values

Description
This command defines an optional parent scheduler that further governs the available bandwidth given the
queue aside from the queue's PIR setting. When multiple schedulers and/or queues share a child status with
the parent scheduler, the weight or level parameters define how this queue contends with the other children
for the parent's bandwidth.
Checks are not performed to see if a scheduler-name exists when the parent command is defined on the
queue. Scheduler names are configured in the config>qos>scheduler-policy>tier level context. Multiple
schedulers can exist with the scheduler-name and the association pertains to a scheduler that should exist on
the egress SAP as the policy is applied and the queue created. When the queue is created on the egress SAP,
the existence of the scheduler-name is dependent on a scheduler policy containing the scheduler-name being
directly or indirectly applied (through a multi-service customer site) to the egress SAP. If the scheduler-
name does not exist, the queue is placed in the orphaned operational state. The queue will accept packets but
will not be bandwidth limited by a virtual scheduler or the scheduler hierarchy applied to the SAP. The
