Queue field descriptions

Use the data in the following table to use the Queue tab.

Field

Description

PId

Displays the queue profile ID.

Id

Displays the queue ID.

AdminWeight

Configures the queue weight for weighted round robin (WRR), or the rate-limit in percentage of the link rate for queue shaping enabled on the queue.

For rate-limit-enabled queues, 50 indicates 50% bandwidth. The overall rate-limit-enabled queues cannot sum higher than 100 min-weight.

If rate-limiting is not enabled, this field configures the weight in the WRR scheduler. These values are not associated with bandwidth percentage.

The following list identifies the default minimum weight for each queue:

  • Queue 0 — 10

  • Queue 1 — 20

  • Queue 2 — 30

  • Queue 3 — 40

  • Queue 4 — 50

  • Queue 5 — 50

  • Queue 6 — Rate limited to 50% of configured shaper rate

  • Queue 7 — Rate limited to 5% of configured shaper rate

OperWeight

Displays the operational weight of the profile, described as a percentage.

AdminRateLimitStatus

Enables rate limiting on the queue. By default, rate limiting is enabled (true) for queues 6 and 7 only; it is disabled (false) for queues 0 through 5.

OperRateLimitStatus

Displays the operational status of the queue rate limit.
