Renaming the Queues
The default queue names are qosp3, qosp2, qosp1, and qosp0. You can change one or more of the names if
desired. To do so, use one of the following methods.
USING THE CLI
To rename queue qosp3 (the premium queue) to “92-octane”, enter the following commands:
BigIron(config)# qos name qosp3 92-octane
BigIron(config)# write memory
Syntax: qos name <old-name> <new-name>
The <old-name> parameter specifies the name of the queue before the change.
The <new-name> parameter specifies the new name of the queue. You can specify an alphanumeric string up to
32 characters long.
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
1. Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access. The System configuration
dialog is displayed.
2. Click on the plus sign next to Configure in the tree view to expand the list of configuration options.
3. Click on the plus sign next to QoS in the tree view to expand the list of QoS option links.
4. Click on the Profile
link to display the QoS Profile configuration panel, as shown in the following figure.
5. Edit the strings name the Name fields for the queue(s) you want to rename. In this example, the premium
queue is renamed from “qosp3” to “92-octane”.
6. Click the Apply button to save the change to the device’s running-config file.
7. Select the Save
link at the bottom of the dialog, then select Yes when prompted to save the configuration
change to the startup-config file on the device’s flash memory.
Changing the Minimum Bandwidth Percentages of the Queues
If you are using the weighted fair queuing mechanism instead of the strict mechanism, you can change the
weights for each queue by changing the minimum percentage of bandwidth you want each queue to guarantee for
its traffic.
