Setting Up WFQ

Setting Up WFQ

Use the set port queue service wfq command to set a port, port range, or module to use weighted fair queueing (WFQ) queue servicing. WFQ is the default queue-servicing algorithm.

The syntax of the command is:

(configure)# set port queue service {{<mod-num> | <mod-swport-range>} [...,{<mod-num> | <mod-swport-range>}] | all-ports} wfq {queue <queue> weight <weight> | default}

Table�200:�set port queue service wfq Command Parameters �
Parameter	Description
<mod-num>	The slot number of a module. If you specify <mod-num>, all ports on the module are set to use WFQ.
<mod-swport-range>	The slot number of a module, and, either a port number, or a range of port numbers having the format Px-Py. For example: To specify port 1 on the module in slot 3, enter 3/1. To specify ports 1 through 5 on the module in slot 3, enter 3/1-5. If you specify <mod-swport-range>, the port or range of ports that you specify is set to use WFQ.
all-ports	All ports in the chassis. If you specify all-ports, all ports on all modules in the chassis are set to use WQF.
<queue>	The queue number, which can range from 0 to 7.
<weight>	The weight that you want to assign to the queue. Weights can range from 1 to 254.
default	The default weights. For the specific default weight of each queue, see Table�199.
