When QoS Control Mode = DiffServ, you have the option of configuring attributes for each
group (the acceptable ranges for each parameter are shown in brackets). Note the following
(from left to right):
Column
Description
Index
The automatically assigned specific rule internal index number is identified here.
Priority
IP traffic is prioritized based upon the DSCP (DiffServ Code Points) Class Selector
Precedence.
Per-Hop Behavior (PHB)
This is the traffic class that determines how packets will be forwarded.
Codepoint (DSCP)
This is the Codepoint value in the Type of Service (ToS) byte of the IP header.
Service Rate (kbps)
The minimum bandwidth is served first among the Assured Forwarding (ASFD) classes
in case of bandwidth availability, once Class Selector 7 through Class Selected 1 have
been serviced.
Drop Precedences
ASFD Class 4 through 1 Code Points (b100xx0, b011xx0, b010xx0, and b001xx0)
carry the drop precedence value (xx). In case of network congestion, a Weighted
Random Early Detection (WRED) congestion avoidance algorithm is imposed on these
queues to drop the packets randomly rather than ‘tail drop.’
The ASFD classes all take Priority 8 instead of their corresponding
class priorities (i.e., 1 through 4) to provide “Service Rate (kbps)”
among all ASFD classes.
•
Low Drop Precedence (% full) [100] – In case of congestion, the WRED is
applied after the queue depth exceeds the configured percentage value assigned
for the Drop Precedence value b001.
• Med. Drop Precedence (%full) [20–90] – In case of congestion, the WRED is
applied after the queue depth exceeds the configured percentage value assigned
for the Drop Precedence value b010.
• High Drop Precedence (% full)) [10-80] – In case of congestion, the WRED is
applied after the queue depth exceeds the configured percentage value assigned
for the Drop Precedence value b011.
Make sure that:
High Drop Precedence value < Med. Drop value < Low Drop value.
