Traffic Policing and Shaping Configuring QoS
page 25-28 OmniSwitch AOS Release 7 Network Configuration Guide June 2013
In this example, the specified ports for pgroup2 span across two slots. As a result, the maximum band-
width limit specified by the policy action is increased to 20K for all of the ports. The bandwidth limit is
increased by multiplying the number of slots by the specified bandwidth value.
Configuring Port Bandwidth Shaping
QoS supports configuring maximum bandwidth on ingress and egress ports through the qos port maxi-
mum egress-bandwidth and qos port maximum ingress-bandwidth CLI commands. For more informa-
tion about these commands, see the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.
Note the following when configuring the ingress or egress bandwidth limit for a port:
• Maximum bandwidth limiting is done using a granularity of 64K bps. Any value specified that is not a
multiple of 64K is rounded up to the next highest multiple of 64K.
• The maximum bandwidth value cannot exceed the maximum bandwidth of the interface type associ-
ated with the port.
• Modifying the maximum bandwidth is most useful for low-bandwidth links.
• The configured port-based egress bandwidth limit takes precedence over an egress queue limit config-
ured on the same port.
