5.8.4. QOS QUEUE CONFIGURATION-SETUP
This screen allows the network manager to configure a QoS queue and assign it to a specific layer 2
interface. The scheduler algorithm is defined by the layer 2 interface.
In ATM mode a maximum of 16 queues can be configured
In PTM (Packet Transfer Mode) a maximum of 8 queues can be configured.
For each Ethernet interface a maximum of 4 queues can be configured.
If configuring an Ethernet interface its only possible to set precedence levels
If configuring a WAN port the Precedence or weighting can be selected as well as DSL
latency
If any interfaces are configured on entering this option we see a table as shown below, which displays
the various queues configured.
These fields have the following meanings
Note: For SP scheduling, queues assigned to the same Layer 2 interface shall have unique precedence.
Lower precedence value implies higher priority for this queue relative to others
Click 'Apply/Save' to save and activate the queue.
Name: Provide a Name for this schedule
Enable Enable or disable this service
Interface This will be the Layer 2 interfaces or any of the LAN ports
(Atm0, Eth0 WAN, Eth1, Eth2, Eth3, Eth4)
Precedence (NB1) 1 to 7 (For ATM WAN interface)
1 to 4 (for Ethernet Interface)
Queue Weight 1 to 63 (NB Lower value gives higher priority)
DSL Latency Displays the DSL latency set for the interface if the schedule is set on
a DSL interface.
PTM Priority Packet Transfer Mode – alternative to ATM not currently enabled
Note 1
Lower integer values for precedence imply higher priority for this queue relative to others.
The queue entry configured here will be used by the classifier to place ingress packets appropriately.
