Creating a Network Queue QoS Policy

By default, all network queue policies are created with queue 1 and (multipoint) queue 9 applied to the policy. Similarly, when an FC is created within a network queue policy, the default unicast queue 1 and multicast queue 9 are assigned to the FC. The multipoint keyword applies to queues 9 to 16.

Use the following CLI syntax to create a network queue QoS policy.

CLI Syntax:

config>qos
    network-queue policy-name
        description description-string 
        fc fc-name
            multicast-queue queue-id
            queue queue-id 
        queue queue-id [multipoint] [queue-type]
            adaptation-rule [pir adaptation-rule] [cir adaptation-rule]
            cbs percent
            high-prio-only percent
            mbs percent
            rate percent[cir percent]
            slope-policy name

The following example creates a unicast and a multipoint network queue policy.

Example:

ALU-1# config>qos# network-queue NQ1 create
config>qos>network-queue$ description "NetQueue1"
config>qos>network-queue$ fc be create
config>qos>network-queue>fc$ exit
config>qos>network-queue# queue 10 multipoint create
config>qos>network-queue>queue# exit
config>qos>network-queue$ fc h1 create
config>qos>network-queue>fc$ multicast-queue 10
config>qos>network-queue>fc$ exit
config>qos>network-queue# exit
config>qos# exit
ALU-1#

The following output displays the configuration for NQ1.

ALU-1>config>qos# network-queue NQ1
ALU-1>config>qos>network-queue# info detail
