This section contains instructions for the following tasks:

• Configuring Low-Latency Queueing with Strict Priority Queueing, page 57
• Configuring Traffic Shaping, page 60
• Configuring Traffic Policing, page 62
Configuring Guaranteed and Remaining Bandwidths
Guaranteed Service rate of a queue is defined as the bandwidth the queue receives when all the queues
are congested. It is defined as:
Guaranteed Service Rate = minimum bandwidth + excess share of the queue
The bandwidth command allows you to specify the minimum guaranteed bandwidth to be allocated for
a specific class of traffic. MDRR is implemented as the scheduling algorithm.
The bandwidth remaining command specifies a weight for the class to the MDRR. The MDRR
algorithm derives the weight for each class from the bandwidth remaining value allocated to the class.
The bandwidth remaining is divided among the classes in a policy using either bandwidth remaining
ratio or bandwidth remaining percent commands. If you do not configure the bandwidth remaining
command for any class, the leftover bandwidth is allocated equally to all classes for which bandwidth
remaining is not explicitly specified.
Restrictions
The amount of bandwidth configured should be large enough to also accommodate Layer 2 overhead.
The bandwidth command is supported only on policies configured on outgoing interfaces.
