Configuring queue group for network egress traffic on port

The provisioning steps involved in using a queue-group queue on an egress network port are:

1. Create the queue group template.

   1. Create the egress queue group template.

   2. Create the queues and, or policers within the queue group template.

2. Create the queue group.

   1. Identify the egress port (or ports) on which the queue group is needed (for LAG, use the primary port member).

   2. Create a queue group with the same name as the template on the port or ports. The instance ID is optional.

3. Map a forwarding class to the queue-id within the queue group.

   1. Identify or create the network QoS policy that is used on the egress IP interface where queue redirection is needed.

   2. Map the needed egress forwarding classes within the network QoS policy to the specific queue IDs and, or policer IDs within the group (the group name is supplied when the QoS policy is applied to the IP interface).

4. Apply the network QoS policy.

   1. Identify or create the IP interface requiring forwarding class redirection to the queue group.

   2. Assign the QoS policy to the IP interface and specify the queue group name (and optionally, instance ID) for redirection of egress traffic.

When a queue within a template is mapped by a forwarding class on any object, the queue may be edited, but not deleted.
