Configuring Quality of Service 413
The scheduling scheme is enabled system-wide. Queues assigned to the strict priority policy are
automati-cally assigned to the highest priority queue. By default all values are set as Strict Priority.
Queue weight values can be assigned in any order using WRR. WRR values can be assigned system-wide.
Best effort traffic is always assigned to the first queue. WRR values must be assigned so that Queue 1
remains best effort.
