QoS rate adjustment is disabled by default.
• Specify the number of bytes of packet overhead to include in rate limiting, policing, and shaping
calculations.
CONFIGURATION mode
qos-rate-adjust overhead-bytes
For example, to include the Preamble and SFD, type qos-rate-adjust 8. For variable length
overhead fields, know the number of bytes you want to include.
The default is disabled.
Enabling Strict-Priority Queueing
Strict-priority means that Dell Networking OS de-queues all packets from the assigned queue before
servicing any other queues.
• The strict-priority supersedes bandwidth-percentage configuration.
• A queue with strict priority can starve other queues in the same port-pipe.
• Assign strict priority to one unicast queue.
CONFIGURATION mode
strict-priority
The range is from 1 to 3.
Queue Classification Requirements for PFC Functionality
Queue classification requirements for PFC functionality are mentioned below:
• On untagged ports, Queue classification must be based on DSCP.
• On tagged ports, Queue classification must be based on Dot1p. Layer 3 classification configurations
should not be present on the port.
• On hybrid ports, Queue classification can be based on either Dot1p (for tagged packets) or DSCP (for
untagged packets) but not both.
Example Case:
PFC does not work for tagged traffic, when DSCP based class map is applied on a hybrid port or on a
tagged port. Assume two switches A and B are connected back to back.
Consider the case where untagged packets arrive on switch A, if you want to generate PFC for priority 2
for DSCP range 0-7, then you have to match the interested traffic. You must use the class map and
associate to queue 1 using the policy map. The same class map needs to be applied in switch B as well
and when queue 1 gets congested, PFC would be generated for priority 2. Switch A on receiving PFC
frames with priority 2 would stop scheduling queue 1.
If a tagged packet with VLAN dot1p as 5 ingresses on switch A. Consider that tagged packet also has
DSCP in range of 0-7.These packets will match the class map and get queued on queue 1 on both the
switches.
