On the 7210 SAS-Mxp, users have an option to use either port-based egress queuing and shaping or SAP-based egress queuing and shaping for SAPs configured on access ports or hybrid ports. The configure system resource-profile qos port-scheduler-mode command allows you to select the mode to be used for SAPs configured on all the ports of the node (that is, this is a per node setting). The following sections describe the behavior of the scheduler in these two modes.
The queue parameters and scheduling parameters for the queue are configured in the SAP egress policies when using SAP-based egress queues, and are configured in the access-egress policies when using port-based egress queues.
